Need help finding a dr. in the TN area - I live near Memphis, TN - but being in the Mid South - Mississippi and Arkansas dr. can be considered. Please let me know as soon as possible. Trying to raise 3 kids and work full time with this horrible disease.

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent for VA, MO & NC.

No LLMDs in TN, GA, AL or SC - they are far and few between, unfortunately! You need to go where they are.

Most LLMDs do not take insurance due to the politics surrounding this disease. Read poster TF's explanation about this:

"Why Lyme Doctors Don't Take Insurance"
http://flash.lymenet.org/scripts/ultimatebb.cgi/topic/2/15615?#000005

When you call for an appointment, ask if there are any cancellations or a waiting list. Patients have been able to get in sooner by doing this.

Check the online state Lyme groups at:
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/tennesseelyme

Maybe they can help you.

Some more resources for you (including Support Groups):
www.lyme-aware.org/tennessee.html
www.tn-lyme.org

The top LLMD, Dr. H, has written a new book entitled, "Why Can't I Get Better?". It is an excellent source of information.

Also read "Cure Unknown" by Pamela Weintraub. Check your local library or buy it used on Amazon.
