Seek out a physician referral such as ILADS and find a doctor that knows HOW to help you. DO NOT rely on just any doctor. Lyme Disease knowledge is in its infancy and most doctors don't TRUELY know much about it. Even infectious disease doctors who are not ILADS doctors will most likely be dismissive or may order you the standard few weeks worth of Doxycycline. You need a doctor who can follow up with you. It could become chronic like mine, if not treated long enough. Unfortunately Lyme Disease doctors usually get paid by you and not your insurance. Until the laws are changed, it will remain an expensive illness to treat.
