I live in southeastern CT and was recently diagnosed with advanced lyme disease when my knee got swollen. I took doxycycline for 2 weeks and then got put on rocephin for 28 days through a picc line. My symptoms have gotten worse since I have been off the antibiotics for 3 weeks now. I still have the swollen knee which I can't walk on and now have joint pain everywhere. I also have heart palpatations along with high heart rate/blood pressure. I am seeing multiple doctors and would love to find an LLMD instead of my general infectous disease doctor to treat this agressively. Any recomendations would be HIGHLY appreciated. Thanks

It's amazing there is a controversy to this insidious disease and I've found it easiest to show a couple of u tube video's on the controversy.
