Topic: Looking for a LLMD in Washington, DC

I've spent the last 13 years trying to figure out why I felt so awful in so many ways. A number of doctors I've seen said I just needed to relax and take a tranquilizer.

I've recently been told that my CD57 is very low--16--and that may be a sign of Lyme disease. But I don't have confidence in the doctor who gave me that information.

Now I'm DESPERATELY searching for a great LLMD in Washington, DC.

Can anyone help me, please? (I'm way over 18.)

I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice but only my personal experience and opinion.

How far would you travel? I have a Lyme Literate Doctor that is treating me on Kent Island. I live on the Eastern Shore, but it's not very far from DC - my husband commutes to DC every work day.

I've probably had Lyme since 2003, but started treatment after more tick bites in June of 2010.
