Hi, All.

My cousin has had Lyme for a while and has never seen an LLMD. Her RA doctor diagnosed her with Lyme when he found Lyme bacteria in the fluid on her knee, but for some reason she (and possibly her doctor, too) thinks she might have had a false positive.

If I understood her correctly, she recently tested positive for Lyme, after having had treatment for it. She really doesn't think she has Lyme but when I told her about my husband now diagnosed with it, she said that she had searched and didn't find an LLMD in her area.

She lives in the area of Palmyra/Cinnaminson, N. J. or Philadelphia, PA.

Thanks.

Hi Mississippi!
Thank you for reaching out to your cousin! If I can be of any help, please do let me know.

You can send me an email by clicking on my screen name or the small blue envelope under my screen name. I may have contact information for some LLMD's in your area as well. Please include her state and area that you would like to find a LLMD in and I will be happy to share the names I have.

You can email the Tick-Borne Disease Alliance at medicalinfo@tbdalliance.org for LLMD referrals and you can go to tbdalliance.org to learn more about these infections.

You can go to The Lyme Disease Association and search for LLMD's 3 times in a month. You have to register first. Here is the link:

ILADS has their own referral system as well:
ilads.org/ilads_media/physician-referral/

And www.LymeDoc.org

Be sure to share this with her as well:
