Trying to help a couple of people who live near Pittsburgh. One is an adult with what sounds to me like lyme (neuropathy, balance problems, joint problems). The other is a child with acute onset anxiety/OCD behavior. Advice appreciated!

Sorry I don't have information on the LLMD you are looking for, but just wanted you to know that PANS/PANDAS can definitely be caused by lyme and the coinfections. In our case it was caused by bartonella/babesia. Our LLMD in Buffalo NY understood this and told me that treating our daughter for bartonella would resolve her PANDAS, and it did. She is 100% now and has been for a couple of years.

My naturopath is out there and I like her a lot. Downside is she is rather pricey. First appointment with all supplements usually runs about $500. Then it goes down depending to about $300-$350. I only see her typically 1-2x a year now so that isn't bad. I went initially from seeing her once every 6 weeks then to 2 months, then 1x every 3 months etc. etc. so all in all it wasn't horrible compared to some other doctors. If you are interested message me and fwd my info to your friend with the message included. :)

Sweet of you to help out!
