I was diagnose with lyme a month ago and been drinking tetracycline given to me by my PCP. Im looking LLMD as my Pcp didnt even talk to me they just let her assistant call home. Im hoping to see LLMd who will accept insurance. Thanks

Hi lymiemom12 - welcome to our community! This is a great place to come for support, and answers to questions you might have.
Very supportive and knowledgeable people here.

Please enable your email option so members can send you LLMD names via email. We don't post the names on here - for privacy reasons.

When you have a moment, please take a look at the thread at the top of the page titled: "New to Lyme?..Start Here!" - its' full of good information - symptom lists, info on probiotics, detoxing suggestions, and more.

Hi Lymiemom,
Welcome to our community!

I see you've already been given a lot of good information, so I just wanted to welcome you and add in a few more options for finding an ILADS trained LLMD.


​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 your state (or province) and area that you would like to find a LLMD in and I will see how close I can get to your location.​


You can email the Tick-Borne Disease Alliance at
​[​​url]​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:
www.lymediseaseassociation.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=277&Itemid=74​​


​ You will want to find an ILADS trained doctor, not one that has self proclaimed themselves as a LLMD or an ID Doc (Infectious Disease Doctor), as ID docs believe Lyme is hard to catch and easy to treat, and don't believe in the reality of chronic Lyme. Go to the ILADS site to read the new (2014) Treatment guidelines to get you started on your healing journey:
