No consult

Well got call today from nurse, my pcp said no to consulting with a Lyme doctor to verify my results. Also said would not treat me for Lyme no matter waht doctor said since it is so controversial. But did acknowledge it was still possible that I had chronic Lyme. Feeling so much in limbo, very frustrated and down. Just want answers...why oes this have to be so darn hard to get help.

I did get a call also today and the Lyme doctors office manager did confirm I was ''on the list'. They are backlogged but thought they might start seeing more Lyme patients starting in February. Seems like forever. I'm just tired of being sick. Seeing my life slowly be destroyed on so many levels and no matter how hard I fight I seem to continue to hit walls. It just makes no sense.

" no to consulting with a Lyme doctor to verify my results. Also said would not treat me for Lyme no matter waht doctor said since it is so controversial."

That's a huge red flag for those seeking truth - and if you have Lyme (it sounds like you do to me), it's not only irresponsible, but dangerous for a doctor to say those things. Why would he be so afraid of you consulting another doctor? 2nd and 3rd opinions are encouraged with every other disease! Why should Lyme disease be any different?

I would say walk away from the closed minded doc. You need help, obviously, and you won't be getting it from him.

You can start now and get your body detoxing, eating right, and getting my body and organs balanced out & working somewhat. I took the first 6 months of my treatment time to do only those things. Then when I started on my treatments, it only took me 2 years in treatment to heal from infections that I had for 40 years.
