My daughter has recently moved home from San Francisco, after battling Lyme and Babesios by herself with no improvement after 1+ years on antibiotics and herbal supplements.

Please , can anyone suggest a LLMD in Minneapolis?? Twin Cities area?? I thought Minneapolis was suppose to be more progressive than this.

She will have to continue to see Dr. S in SanFran, although he has little compassion for Lymies with neural pain.

I am new to Lymenet, cannnot comprehend the suffering Lymies go through. It makes me so sad to see the anguish my daughter goes through. It makes me so sad to read your posts..............

Would someone also PLEASE send me any information on a LLMD in Minneapolis, St. Paul or Stillwater, MN. I was diagnosed with MS but the MS drugs do not work, neither do the 1000mg a day intravaneous steroids-I just think something is funny here. I just keep getting worse.
Thank you very much for your help!

Welcome; so glad you found us!!

Fyi: we have over 1000 viewers daily; 200 - 400 posting/replying so we all must manage our time well; so specific titles get our time/replies. NON-SPECIFIC ONES, I SOB, SCROLL ON BY!
*************************************************************

Also, please be VERY SPECIFIC in subject line what you will be discussing.

Example:

PLEASE show your positive, +/-, and IND numbers from both western blot IGG AND IGM blood tests; do it this way please!

IGM ... do same thing for IGG below IGM
*******************************************

18 +
41 +/-
78 IND


When you post or reply, please break up your solid, continuous block text [Smile]
welcome to the board! many of us have neuro lyme where we can NOT read long solid block text and be able to comprehend and read it as is.


please edit your post by CLICKING PAPER/PENCIL ICON to right of your name. that opens up BOTH subject line and body text.


now please break up your WORDY SENTENCES into one sentence paragraphs. Then hit ENTER KEY ``THREE`` after each paragraph; we need that space for comprehension.


if you are NOT a wordy person, you can do 2 or 3 total ok. do this for your entire post.

NOTE: you do NOT have to use "", just show the name of person you are responding to, and then type your comment.


IF you need to use "", PLEASE DELETE "BOLD" CODES so it's regular type text we read vs. the DARK, HARSH/PAINFUL BOLDING.

specifically, delete the first 4 characters of 2ND LINE of a ""


[QB] just delete these 4 characters, and BOLDING is GONE! my eyes will really appreciate that; it's one very bad side effect of my having lyme for 38.5 years!! xox


then go to left hand corner and mark box to receive ALL REPLIES, and click EDIT SEND


we thank you for helping us; [Wink] otherwise, we will SOB, SCROLL ON BY, since we can't read to help you. If I see posts like this, I SOB them; to hard on me. I'm also in the early stages of losing my eyesight from diabetes retinopathy. [Frown]

You could try joining MinnesotaLyme at http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/minnesotalyme
There is a very active Lyme group in MN. Your daughter should be able to find help. There is also an active group in CA should she ever be able to return there.
