I'm 22 and have recently developed tremors and a whole host of varied/vague symptoms that seem to be getting worse, but are ALL possible Lyme Disease symptoms. My family doctor won't even acknowledge that Lyme Disease can cause tremors, but instead has repeatedly told me that I'm just "hungry" or "had too much coffee". I don't even drink coffee. Please help!

I would strongly recommend that you go immediately to the US for medical care.
The Canadian medical system wasted years of my life. This is esp in reference to Dr. B. in Toronto - avoid. You will hear some positive things about him in almost zealous ways - this is covering for the fact that he left many of us in the same or worse shape than he found us in.

Are you familiar with Dr. Murakami in Vancouver? He has an informative website, and though he is retired (which is why I'm mentioning the name in full here), he will consult with other physicians; worth contacting him:
