Hi, I live in Louisville KY and was bitten in April of this year. My general practitioner put me on doxy for 2 weeks but that didn't get the job done. My first infectious disease doctor was unable to diagnose and said that I was an anomaly. The second infectious disease doc has been working with me some - diagnosed me - 2 months after being bitten and put me on amoxicillin for 8 weeks - now rocephin IV for a month. He has said that the rocephin will be the last thing he will prescribe and that if I still have symptoms at the end of the month then they are just a part of my body's immune response and not a sign of an active infection. I am concerned that this current drug might not get the job done. Please help me find a LLMD near me - I am in a very demanding grad school and am concerned about making it through. Thanks in advance!

If you don't get well it is because Lyme is not all that tick gave you. There is a flood of new research and drugs that work...
You need a LLMD to help you...
They are now reporting over 120 organisms that ticks can transmit, but will not culture...And they haven't even got to the virus' yet.
This is the stealth of borrelia that has the ability to hide other organisms DNA.
Lymetoo will not steer you wrong. Find a LLMD to help you.
