Hi,

I am trying to find a doctor that is knowledgeable in Lyme disease in Portland area, Oregon.

Have been in and out of different doctors offices for over two years, treated for high blood pressure, UTI, anxiety, depression etc.

Nothing has helped blurred vision, head and neck pain, pain in knee, in side, fatigue, fevers, memory and focus problems - to mention some of the symptoms that seem to be related to having Lymes disease. Antibiotics do help the symptoms, but not completely and then the symptoms will get worse again after a while.

Elisa test was negative, and doctor will not run more tests, I was sent back to primary physicians.

Will appreciate very much if someone knows about a specialist in Oregon.

Thanks,
Susi

Hi Susi,
I have lyme disease myself and live near Portland, and unfortunately we don't have any specialists or family doctors who comfortably acknowledge lyme disease as a probable cause for our symptoms (as it sounds like you've already found out).

However, I have some great Naturepath docs you may be interested in contacting. If so, PM me and I will be happy to talk to you about those options I've found.

Take care,
JavaBeing
