Update!!!

Hi guys just wanted to post an update.  I found a LLMD in Lyme CT of all places who is willing to treat me with my 4th round of Doxy for a month and if i still have symptoms I will do IV Antibiotics he seems very promising.  I have been taking it for a week now and my joints and nerves/veins feel better already of course the headaches wich i have been struggling with for a year and a half are still there.  I know when my headaches are gone my lyme will be gone because I never had headaches before Lyme disease and everytime i have antibiotic treatment my body feels better but my head still fells a mess and then i get progressivly worst untill it spreads throughout again.  I am sooooo excited he understands and is treating me and believes me even if the test say I am treated.

Progress!  That's great.

I dont' recall if you've been tested for coinfections ... did the new doc mention that aspect?

Well...I went to see another LLMD near me for a second opinion on treatment and I think I am on the right path now for treatment.  She confermed what I already knew.  My Dysautonomia is directly because of my Lyme Disease.  Of course no doctor before would conferm that even though many studies have made that connection and proved it.  She changed my antibiotic to Tetracycline and have a higher dose and i will be on it as long as it takes to kill em. I hope that after I am treated for lime it will also treat the Autonomic Dysfunction and I wont have to take so many pills anymore.
