Found a LLMD! But What the heck do i ask?

Hey guys! I'm a bit confused....  I found an LLMD off of an internet site that you all suggested THANK YOU!!  but i'm kind of confused on where to start? The LLMD is labeled a fibro.. ( not sure how to spell that rest) doctor that treats lyme very well from what the reviews say. So when i call do i just come out and say I would like an appointment for Lyme disease ? Or should i tell him im labeled MS with other odd symptoms and would like to look further into and are your willing to do so? I so don't know where to start  I'm only 23 lol I havent really had nor learned how to do this kind of stuff before!  And should i ask questions? Like about him or his office or stuff about lyme? and what kind of questions and answers would be the good ones? Any help with be soooo nice. Thank you guys  you all been making this alot easier to figure this out!

Also write down any questions you may have or anything you want to tell the doctor.  It's easy to forget things when you are in with the doctor.

I think your second approach "labeled MS with other odd symptoms and would like a second opinion" is a good one.  MDs tend to get cranky if patients tell them what the diagnosis should be ...

None of us have lived through this before either, and pretty soon you'll be as educated as the rest of us.

Good luck, let us know how it goes.  And a suggestion:  take copies of all your previous tests with you, so the new MD can review and put them in your file for future reference.
