I love Dr K in orange CT if you’re willing to travel to new haven area. He’s super smart

I saw his info online. Does he use a natural approach as well as antibiotics?

He’s traditional abx but wouldn’t steer you away from herbs and is a great diagnostician

Are you familiar with Dr. E in MA?

Lyme Center of New England treats with Abx, Herbal, IV and keeps up with trying ALT remedies. May Take 4 months or so to get on their schedule, especially given pandemic impact in our area.

Check out their web site. RI has legal protections in place for Lyme patients and practitioners.

Thank you! Do you know if they recognize being positive for Lyme with just one band being positive in the western blot? (Band 41)

Also, is that the clinic in Cumberland with with the NP?

She treats by symptoms, but will do testing too. Yes, that's the place on Mendon Rd. Just a nice clean office space with a Quest Labs in the back room for convenience. Great staff to boot.

Wow that’s great! I want to get an igenex test done so that means I get get my blood drawn at Quest while I’m there. I’m going to call today. Thank you!

Good luck, you will be in good hands.

If you already have been tested, you may consider saving your money towards treatment. I think her first visit will be around $600 - $700, and follow-on sessions around $225 - $250 based on time spent and complexity.

I was tested via East Side Lab, wasn’t sure if I should get the more reliable testing done via Igenex since the only band I reacted to was 41.
