It doesn't look like there is any help in Texas.

I posted about this last week:

I contacted the support group coordinator in OK a few months ago for a friend, she gave a few names which I passed on, don't now have.

try locating support group for state. This web site has links to those contacts. start in TX if that doesn't work CAll coordinator in OK, she picked the phone right up.

I wish I could tell you. Helpful doctors exist in TX, but the ones I found don't want any patients referred to them because of the pitbulls that run the Texas medical board.

There's a couple good NDs, and I could share that info since they aren't attacked.

To find your STATE Lyme Disease Association-

Web search: [your state], ``Lyme Disease Association'' and be sure that group is ILADS-minded

I am in TX. I have been to LA, MO, CT, VT, DC, and CA for LLMD's.

I've also been to one in TX, but he has been driven out.

I have seen some TX doctors that will treat but not per ILADS, so if you can't travel, you might be able to find someone to help.

I just stumbled on to the TX doctors when I was looking for alternative health care. I wasn't going to them for Lyme but they knew about it and did treat it, just not the way I wanted to treat it.

Most of the out of state doctors I have been to require in office visits periodically but do a lot of phone consults, so traveling expenses are reduced.
