"Lyme disease and babesia" (BlueCheetah)

MDJunction to me

"MDJunction to me is somewhere i feel safe i feel i can be myself and not be judged. I love the fact that i get to see that im not alone in what i am going through and i also get the chance to help others on their journey through guidance and communication.
I would truly be lost without MDJunction... to me its my savior, my personal place to go where i don’t feel so alone anymore in the world.

Hello!

I am new to this group, but not Lyme! (big frown!)

I can tell you I have found a doctor in Houston who is an Infectious Disease Doc, but she's been great with addressing my Lyme! She's very knowledgable and has been following all the latest treatment protocals I see on the various Lyme Association websites.

The initial visit consists of 9 vials of blood draws to address any other underlying infections that may be going on.

I found her by God's grace and am so greatful I did!'

Good luck!!

Tmcv,

I'm sorry, but I had to edit your post to remove the doctors name.

We do not post names of docs, unless they are published or very well known. This is because there are some folks out there who go after Lyme docs, so we are very protective of them.

Thank you for your very helpful information! I will share the doctors name with the other group leaders so that it can be given to others. In the meantime, you may get PMs from others asking for her name and number.

And three cheers for an ID doc who is out there fighting Lyme with an open mind! You are a lucky person to have found her!

Tom

I am not a doctor, and nothing I say here should be taken as medical advice of any kind.

Glad you found an ID doctor you like...People think all ID doctors are useless, I don't find that to be true. Glad she is helping you...

Lyme will not win, we will and we WILL…
