Be sure to connect with your local Lyme support groups. Members have first-hand knowledge of your area's LLMD'S and share their their experiences. Here are some NC Lyme support groups;
Here is what a well-seasoned Lymenet poster wrote and it really is true:
"This is what I have learned in over 14 years in the Lyme world--the doc is the key. Can't emphasize that enough. The doc is the key to getting rid of this horrendous disease.
Many doctors treat Lyme Disease, but only a FEW know enough to get rid of it for a person. Your job is to find one of those few.
If you can possibly get yourself to a top doc, that is what you want to do. It gets you the best chance to get rid of this horrendous disease."

Sorry to read about your relapse! I'm assuming you're going to find a doc on the East Coast, but if you really need to look further, as in travel, I know some excellent CA doctors. Pm me if interested.

I think I have temporarily resolved the issue for now I stared dosing doxy as I normally do about once a year , but didn’t initially work . I’m improving every day and have stopped the doxy. Think I had high levels of bugs and had a herx reaction to med.
