It's political - there's a lot of denial going on. I now have Lyme brochures with me when I go to appts!
As soon as you can get to a Lyme-treating doctor, things will start to turn around for you, so just have patience during the wait period. There are many ways to treat Lyme.
In the meantime you can educate yourself here and chat with any area support groups, if you have any.
At the top of Medical Questions, there's a sticky, "Important Information about Lyme and co-infections." Lots of info there. Burrascano 2008 guidelines is a good one to read through.
Search function here at the top of the page - you can type in any word or phrase and archived threads will come up. Just know we're all different in how we respond to anything and the trick is to find what works for us.

Go after the IDSA and Texas Medical Board. You have positive tests they are refusing to treat you for. Google David Kocurek Lyme IDSA lawsuit. It was just filed in Texas and lists the law firms representing his estate and 28 people. Why not call the law firm and talk to them about what you are experiencing?
