I need an LLMD, or Lyme-friendly MD, in KY or near Southwestern KY (or NW Tennessee, SE Missouri, or far Southern Illinois) for a very sick friend who has finally come around from her Lyme denial. She definitely has neuro-Lyme, and even had a positive ELISA, but only band 41 on generic WB.
This person really has NO money, and is unable to drive long distances. To top it off, KY is a wasteland for Lyme-literacy, so I am expecting a real battle to help get her diagnosed and treated properly.
If anyone knows of others with Lyme in the western KY (or NW Tennessee, SE Missouri, or far Southern Illinois) area, I am sure it would be helpful for her to have local support. She is a very good friend, but I am over 4 hours away and can't drive, so I can't be there to help her.
Thank you to anyone that can help. Any advice would of course be appreciated. I have been through all of this already and been in treatment for almost 2 years, so I know the drill, but This is all new for her.
