Hi! I have had Lyme for about 4 years now and have been treated by two doctors. Both i felt were guessing at my treatment. One waited until I was with her for a year to put me on daily IV's of Rocephin. I did that for about 3 months and tried to switch over to homeopathic treatment but it is not working. I want a Dr. with a reputation for getting rid of this crap. Any suggestions?

Lymedown, PLEASE remove the Drs. last name and use their last name initial only. We want to protect our Drs.

Also, please go to "Seeking a Dr" web page and the 3rd post listed is: "New Members! Please read regarding posting". This will help you in learning about the rules of lymenet.

Click on icon with pencil/pad and make changes PLEASE.

I will send you the information you requested when the changes are made. Thank you.

I recommend Dr. J. He has a long waitlist though...last I heard 3-4 months out. If you google him, you should find his clinic website with contact info and lots of other info.

Feel free to PM me with any questions.
