WHOO I got appt to see LLMD in Louisiana

[houseofallboys]

I'm so excited I finally got an appt in feb to see for what I have read an awesome, smart and caring Dr. I hope the reviews are correct  I'm looking forward to getting some answers. He is about 6 hours away but well worth the drive.  He seems to be super smart from the articles I have read about his thoughts and feelings about Lyme diease and the treatment....It's like an early Christmas...

Thanks everyone in this group for guiding me in the right direction to see LLMD and that infectious diease Dr might not be the right fit.....Thank Thank you

I just happen to check in this morning .. I been really busy I just opened up a new coffeeshop working 80 plus hours a week. This only possible by finding my awesome DR. who is getting me back on the road recovery. Last year at this time if I worked 80 hours plus I would ended up in the hospital. Jackie California I went for a  check up last month he said I was not out of the woods yet but getting there Whoo! I'm started a new medicine this week and boy the Lyme is not liking it some of  my old systems are coming back but that means it killing more Lyme! I go back at the end of January to hopefully start cutting back on some medication. Jackie 997 if you private message me  I will give you his name and number . He usually has a waiting list and the appointments are usually running behind but a small price to pay. This Dr. Saved my life and my well being he will always have special place in my heart. Last time I went to his office he received a award of excellence for treating Texas Lyme patients.

Welcome to MedHelp.  HouseOfAllBoys hasn't posted for a while, not sure if she is checking in regularly.

I understand that Texas doesn't have many (if any) LLMDs, due to opposition by the Texas Medical Board against treating Lyme aggressively, tho there is a Texas Lyme disease association who may have some suggestions for you to find an LLMD.  

Their website is at

            txlda.com

You can also send an email to

           contact [at] ILADS [dot] com

and ask for a referral to a Lyme specialist; tell them what areas you are able to travel to, such as east Texas and Lousiana, or  whatever works.

Let us know if that doesn't help, and we'll think some more.

Hope you find some relief soon -- we've all been there.

Best wishes to you, let us know how you do, okay?

[JackieCalifornia]
