Lyme... sure wish it was lemon... - SST's Diary
View Profile Thoughts on my condition and hopeful recovery...

Weekend in MO

I had an appointment yesterday.  I go every 4-6 months since my doctor is in Missouri.  We went over my progress over the last 6 months and discussed every option I had before me.  He's treats a lot of borreliosis patients and spends a great deal of time talking to/with you about treatment options and plans.  I always leave his office with hope that becoming "normal" again is an option.

I'm in the process of looking for a doc in the south TX area.  He wants me to go on IV's for a month to see if we can kick the last 15% of this disease.  I've made tremendous progress in the last year, but that last 15% is pesky and hard to kick.  Hopefully, by the end of the week, I'll find someone down here to help me out. 

God is good.

I realize this is kind of late to answer you. I also noticed you are being seen by a LLMD in MO. If it is who I think it is, you are in great hands.

I suffer from Lyme Disease for over 35 yrs now and saw this wonderful MD in 2005. He decided to not take Medicare patients anymore, so I have been without an LLMD since then. I really need to find one, but since I live in KY there isn't any around here at all. Missouri is the closet. I am just being treated by specialists as the symptoms appear. It is very discouraging.

I would like to hear how you are doing lately.

Thanks and hugs,

Anajean

I was wondering if you could tell me the name of the doctor you've been seeing in MO and where? I like in KS near the MO boarder and am searching desperately for a LLMD in the area.

Hi SST,

I'll bet that we're seeing the same doctor. I think he knows a lot, and I've heard he is the best, but nothing has worked for me yet. I've gotten a lot worse in a short period of time. We are both frustrated. And I have some difficult symptoms that even he hasn't seen before. He wants me on IV antibiotics too, but I also have to find a local doctor to handle this, since I live in Michigan. So it sounds like we're in the same boat.

mizuiro, I don't know if anyone has answered you but I will send you a private message with the information.
