Hi, everyone,
I had this happen the other day. A newbie was looking for a Lyme-literate doc in my area. When I replied, he asked if that doctor would treat in a certain way.
In the light of so many of our LLMD's being turned in to medical boards, I would not answer that question. Instead, I just gave him the contact information and recommended that he get in touch with this doctor for more details.
We can't and shouldn't tell posters what our LLMD's will or won't do. Every patient is a different case, plus we need to protect our doctors from those who would misuse our information.
Take care, Shaz

Absolutely only contact information as name, address, phone number- whatever is pertinent. Treatment options are unique to each individual and the treating physician.
