Here are some of the reviews I found of this doctor by healingwell users: Anyway, there is a doctor in Chapel Hill you may be interested in, and there is a PA that works part time in Dr. J (from...
I'm not so sure about this guy. If I remember correctly, the reviews that I had read about him online were overwhelmingly negative. You can find patient reviews online, just google his name and...
I'm not sure if he's lyme literate per say, but there's an Optometrist in Carrboro, NC who's wife passed away a few months ago from Lyme Disease. According to his website "he is a community leader in...
It still hurts once in a while, usually after sitting all day at work, and when it does hurt its not nearly as bad as before. What hurts the most now are my shoulders whenever I sleep on my side....
Have you tried sleeping on anything else to compare how your back felt in the morning (a friend's couch, a sibling's guest bed)? In my situation, before I was properly diagnosed with lyme disease, I...
My apartment doesn't have a bathtub, only a shower :shakehead: I'm only taking the supplements my llnp suggested tbh, the only thing she said to take for my liver was the lemon water. For probiotic...
Nah, whatever I'm experiencing literally looks like the dude in the video on wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myoclonus And this lady: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gky4n3sAtJk...
Right now I take 10 pinella & 10 burbur drops a day. I used to take chlorella but I was told to hold off on that. I also drink lemon water when I remember (okay I know I'm pretty bad when it comes to...
Hmm, I have my appointment with my llnp in two days so I wasn't sure if I should just wait to ask her or if I should ask y'all for advice. After getting Lyme, i noticed my right foot would jerk once...
By antibiotic challenge do you mean like an allergy test? I did one a few weeks ago to figure out whether or not I could take anything in the penicillin family and it turned out I'm allergic. I'm...
I guess one of the most popular natural vagina cure alls on the internet is to take a piece garlic, pierce it a few times and thread some string or floss through it. Then you stick the garlic in your...
They are ready to do clinic trials for a combination of antibiotics + that compound found in claritin. You can sign up in you're interested, but otherwise I don't suggest you add claritin to your...
Thank you for the link, I was able to find a couple of really good endocrinologists just 2 hours outside of my city. How often do people need to go back to see their thyroid doctor/how often do...
Yes!!! Something I actually know enough to talk about. I got a hand out saying to take curcumin with a fatty snack or oil for better absorption . It also recommended taking either the Longvida,...
Nah, right now I'm seeing an LLNP at Dr. J's clinic in DC unfortunately, that is the case. :( okay dis scary, I spent so long trying to find an LLMD.... how do I go about finding a decent thyroid...

I was looking at the lab results for all the blood tests that my LLNP ran and even though my thyroid is functioning normally, my thyroid antibodies were pretty crazy. My thyroglobulin antibody was a...
my wbc has also dramatically decreased... but I haven't even started any hard hitting antibiotics yet, just my dinky 200mg of doxycycline. 7.8 on May 28th 5.6 on Sept 29th (20 days after I started...
How does everyone tell the difference between nerve pain and pain cause by joint/cartilage degeneration?...
I've tried CBD Oil made from hemp and I've tried CBD patches. I think the patches are a good temporary fix if you know you're going to be doing a lot of strenuous work or running a ton of errands. I...
Dong Quai is where it's at. It's supposed to be able to regulate the estrogen levels in women. My mom makes Dong Quai soup once in a while for the whole family, but she tells the guys in my family to...
I just stopped by my CVS to pick a small one up for my purse so I can take my meds at work. They have a huge variety, like they had an entire back wall dedicated to CVS branded pill organizers of...
I feel like everything kills the bacteria in vitro, but none of them ever work in vivo tbh...
I don't really recommend it tbh. I didn't really fast, but when I first got sick and nobody knew what was wrong with me, I was so depressed I really couldn't eat anything. I definitely did not see an...
When I was more active, I used to make Joe Rogan's Hulk shake a couple of times a week. It doesn't really taste good, but the ginger really gets your metabolism going, and the pulp from the veggies...
Holy crap, I just called Dr. J's clinic this morning and the new Administrative Manager was like "We just had a spot open up for November 17th" so I was like "UHH YES PLEASE!!! :yeah: :yeah: :yeah:...
GSO is shorthand for Greensboro. The lady that contacted me from Dr. F's office said that she's only canceling appointments for the new patients (new like they haven't seen her face-to-face yet)....
Woah that is actually a really good idea. I'm going to see what Dr. J's waitlist looks like by calling first thing in the morning, and if that doesn't work out then I'll try that LLNP....
Yeah, my appointment got cancelled and rescheduled to March 2016. Maybe I'm just being a big baby, but I was in tears. I planned everything out so meticulously trying to extend my cruddy doxy...
Aw !@$#%@#% I just got the call today and I don't have a back up plan. Ugh this is such a mess, I really hate this....
I think most PCP's poo-poo the idea of long term antibiotics, and they may actually terminate your doctor-patient relationship if they don't agree with your LLMD's antibiotic regiment. Is it really...
This was the only thing I could find online. Nobody is 100% sure whether Lyme can be sexually transmitted right now regardless of whether you have active Lyme or are in remission. :confused: ...
I am planning to see the Chapel Hill LLMD in December :) Right now, my primary care physician has me on 200mg doxy per day for 28 days and I am currently on day 12. My joint pain has not gotten...
@Girlie thank you for the reassurance :) @Kyo07 I asked her about upping the dosage and whether we should be testing for co-infections and she dismissed both ideas saying they weren't necessary. I...
I got an appointment with an LLMD for December 18th. I'm relieved I found someone, but at the same time I'm extremely anxious. My basic doxy regiment ends on November 12th and I'm worried I will get...

Thanks kyo07, I just sent you an email :smilewinkgrin:...
Hi all, Can anyone recommend me a LLMD in North Carolina? I currently live in Charlotte, but I go back to the Triangle Area every 3 weekends or so to visit my parents so I am willing to see a LLMD...
