Hey everyone,

Does anyone know of an LLMD in the Dallas area? I really need to find someone here in Texas, most preferably Dallas. I currently am going to a renowned doctor in Mt. Kisco, New York, but he doesn't seem to be helping me very much and I am having a really hard time getting up there. I am dependent on my Dad's financial support and he isn't sure I really even have Lyme. I had a positive ELISA and an indeterminate Western Blot (Only tested positive for 3 bands). Because my Dad isn't sure I have lyme, he's not apt to helping me get up there as much as I need to. I have two days left of antibiotics and have no way of getting to New York. I haven't been able to find a doctor anywhere close to here. I'm hoping some of you guys might be able to help me!

Amanda,

send a PM to Jaime, or Cmany (Christine) on the leaders tab. As BettyG has a list. Ask them. They can help you

Oh Amanda,

I am so sorry you are going through this. Like toothfairy said PM one of the group leaders with your location and they will help you find a doc.

I found mine on www.turnthecorner.org I just emailed them and they got back with me very quickly with a doc. They found me one that excepted insurance, so that helped soooo much.
