Topic: Need LLMD in Boston area

Hello,

I have been fighting Lyme for years, and I am pregnant. I just moved to the Boston area from Washington DC. I need an LLMD. I have had a LLMD in Virginia for a few years, but he would like me to continue seeing him. That is not really possible long-term as I pregnant and have a small child.

Please help me. I would be grateful for any name in the area.

Thanks,

venus

Geez, sorry. That explains lack of communication. I have cleared a bunch of space. Will also send you another email.

Thanks for the persistence.

I don't know of any in MA, but check the online Lyme groups at:
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Massachusettslyme

Maybe they can help you.

These Lyme organizations give doctor referrals:

www.lymediseaseassociation.org

Once you have some names, write a new post in "Seeking a Doctor" to ask for personal references. This way, you will find the right doctor to give you the correct treatment.

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

I have pm-ed his contact information to you.
