Ehlers Danlos III.

It has been discovered that my haplotype seems to be  the 11-3-52B I am still struggling with ongoing chronic lyme positive testing but the neuropathy and other issues are leaving me wondering if my genetic disposition is not helping the situation and if some other form of treatment protocol will be helpful for example IVIGG.  Here is the info I was given by a leading publisher and genetic writer.  please can you tell me where to go what tests to perform that might be helpful and any ideas and thoughts you may have on this matter.  I also had a meningioma that has been treated, pfo just found and noticed that recent moles removed have overeacted and are keloiding for the first time.  I have high mycoplasma levels and excrutiating pain in legs muscles and joints.  Have no idea where to turn or who to go to.  i am planning a visit out of state to a  neurologist that I have great respect for would he be the one that would be able to help me with this matter?
Thank you for your help

The haplotypes should be 7-2-53 and 11-3-52B.  The 11-3-52B is not slow to detox, it is associated with other problems appearing far more commonly, such as elevated TGF beta-1.  This haplotype is particularly enriched in women with Ehlers-Danlos III.
