Hello to All;
Ok, anyone know of a llmd in southeastern pa? I need some help.
I have been going crazy for a while now. I've been going to Dr's unsuccessfully seeking help. All they say is I have a sleep disorder, fibro, depression, menopause, etc. My physical issues have been around for years, and the mental issues have been, too, although getting worse. Tested for Lyme 5/2011 and came back neg. Here's what my test results showed:
Lyme AB G/M - Neg
Lyme AB ISR - 0.040
Lyme IgG/IgM interpretation - Neg
I'm in my early 50's and have been having severe panic attacks, hot flashes and night sweats (sometimes 5 min apart, lasting for hours!), extreme sensitivity to light, touch, and sounds, joint pain, mental fogginess, and migrating pain, sore back of neck, found lumps under left armpit last week, tingling in my neck and lower back of head, numbness and tingling in fingers and toes, times where I feel like a truck hit me, plus more. The thing is, I look fine. I look like all is well.
I just now got off the phone with my primary dr who I've not seen for a year due to no insurance, and I have no trust in her. (She didn't counsel me that my Vit D level was so low (23 ng/mL) and should have been put on a supplement! Another Dr noticed this during a visit and stepped in.) She said that she doesn't think I have Lyme since I don't remember a bite, that there's no way I could have it since the test was neg, and that maybe I should go into to the office and discuss this with another Dr. I don't have insurance, and I will not waste more money on Dr's who are blind and have their own agendas.
Between the hot flashes, panic attacks and inability to rest/sleep, the anxiety and fear levels keep climbing which is what concerns me the most. The past four days all I've been doing is crying and praying for help.
And so, the search continues.
Any/all help is greatly appreciated!
