I have been seeing a LLMD in Florida. He knows all about lyme and has treated tons of people.

but for some reason he is stumped on my case. I have had it 16 years and he can not figure out why i am not better after only 4 months of IV Rocephin.

Right now I am out of school, waiting around to get treated, and he has taken me off meds and is not treating me. I want to knock this stuff out of my body as hard and fast and possable. He simply wants to lalygag but I am putting my life on hold to really kill this stuff and he is not letting me. [Roll Eyes]

I need a new LLMD. I am willing to go anywhere, as long as the doctor IS IS IS IS IS and real LLMD who has treated people who have had it a long time ( more than 10 years).

Please help me! I do not know what to do or where to go. [bonk]

I am so upset. I just want to get better. Please, if you know any doctors who treat people who have had it over 10 years, no matter where they are, please contact me and let me know.

Thank you.

Hang in there, hon, I bet Tutu's PM will help.

I'm in limbo myself, again.

I am amazed that you found any doc in Florida that treats lyme at all! I had symptoms and went to MANY doctors in Orlando. Ten years later I went to a doctor in the Carolina's and was tested. Not a single doctor I saw in Florida ever mentioned or tested me for lyme. I hope you find a new doc and feel better soon.
