My sibling in MA is finally motivated to go to a LLMD. I have lyme and have been trying to get him to see a LLMD for years. He is on disability for cognitive deficits (memory), several episodes of encephalitis, GI sx, arthritis, frozen shoulder, lost his adrenal glands to surgery for tumor removal, life long tremors now increasing to major shakes, muscle pain, etc, etc, etc.

He has no money, and only health insurance is Mass Health and Medicare. Sigh....

Any advice...

I've sent you a PM with details of 2 MA doctors I know of who might (possibly) take Medicare. Good luck!

PM sent for MA. Call the doctors' offices to ask about the insurance questions.

Check the online state Lyme groups at:

Maybe they can help you.
