MDJunction to me

"In the 3 months I have been with MDJunction I have developed a sense of calmness. I now friends who do not judge me because I have been a mental mess at times. It is such a good feeling to have friends I can tell my deepest thoughts and always get back to me with their support. I have never seen a therapist for long periods of time. Right or wrong, this is the best therapy possible for me. Thanks Roy for getting this up and running and making such a difference in my life. Sara" (saralaurie)

 Hi,

I am desperately seeking input! I live in SC but need llmd who accepts insurance due to financial concerns(son has rare disease which has hit our pockets hard)

I would like to stay in sc,nc ga are but willing to travel just about anywhere at this point.

Dr. here sent bloodwork to Labcorp...came back negative so he announces,"you don't have lyme and I just feel your'e stuck."So you see from this that I need to travel

Thanks so much!!!!!

Angela

 That's unfortunately, pretty typical. Doctors stink at detecting Lyme! Most of us will tell you that Igenex is the way to go for testing. Some have had luck getting their insurance to pay, some have not.

www.ignenex.com

I'll see what I can do to help you find some docs in a bit - I'll PM you with what I find in your area.
