I have just finished my second 3 week treatment of Doxy. My general practitioner is not comfortable prescribing additional antibiotics and feels that it is unlikely that I still have Lyme. I, however, still don't feel well and would like to at least get a second opinion. LYME is a very confusing diagnosis.
I live in zip code 06098 and would also have access to Kingston, NY area (12401) and Hartford, CT where I work. Any recommendations greatly appreciated. Thanks! - KJM

PM also sent... stay on Doxy till you get an appointment with LLMD. Even if you take tropical fish capsules.
I took 28 days Doxy from my PCP after my bite with visible EM rash. But it wasn't enough and it went dormant for 3 years till I started to fall apart.
Went to Neuro for a year, and then a rhymy foro a year before I got myself to a LLMD.
He is a saint and I show this to help illustrate how MD's have been prosecuted so normal MD's shy away from doing anything but following the flawed IDSA guidelines.
