Soooooo......Here I am again! Been looking for this forum for years but lost it.

Ya all saved my life before, maybe it can happen again. I am about 5wks pregnant.

I have a "mystery" high risk pregnancy 11 yrs ago, producing a daughter with more"mysterious" health issues.

Yup, my untreated Lyme and my daughter who was 4 when it finally all came together.

This forum let us to Dr. S.H. who works with Dr. T.T.

Thank u for saving our lifes with this info.

Now, where and who does a Lyme woman see when she is pregnant?

Going to see Dr.T.T. next wk but i am going to need a obgyn, right?

Does anyone have any experience with this or know anyone in the california area, preferring s. calif.

Thx!

Hi,

You will want to work with Dr. S.H again I believe. Dr. T.T. should be able to let you know if he can handle it or if at least consult with Dr. S. H is best. I know there is a whole protocol for pregnant women and it's been discussed here. try searching the archives before your appt so you can have some information and questions.

For ob-gyn, I bet you will be hard pressed to find someone who is LL. Hopefully, others will have some names for you.

Congratulations! Best to you!

L.

Healing thoughts to you,

A while back Robin123 posted of an ob-gyn who is lyme aware. I happened to save that. I don't know if she will treat lyme, directly, but should be fine being on your team. Clarification can come only from her, though.

Sadly, she's up in the bay area, nearly a six hour drive but you could take the train or fly. She may also know of someone closer to you.

I'm sure you would also need one right near you to follow you through delivery and also tend to the baby's check-up.

You might first find a LLMD and see whom they might suggest.

Just sent that name, link and phone. Be sure to log on to retrieve your PM.

Best of luck for a wonderful experience. Congratulations.

Dr. J, the best Lyme pediatrician, has put together a protocol for pregnant women with Lyme. It can be followed with your own doctor. Many women have gone on to have healthy babies.

PM sent with Dr. J's contact information.
