Still looking for a doctor who a) is accepting new patients this side of 2013 and b) who will work with the specialist under whose care we are for the Lyme protocol. Fortunately we have been able to start the treatment and we are able to do the infusions at home even if the treatment is worse than the disease at the moment.When we need to cover something of an emergency we just have to go to the ER as our primary is still not with us against this disease, in fact I feel he is gloating when I feel really bad as in "I told you so" . We did have a call from Sumter County Infectious Disease Center yesterday to get the details so iour case has been reported --- they confirmed that the Lyme causing tick is present in Sumter County.
All I can say is if you suspect a tick bite of any sort get to a doctor NOW. Lyme is something you do not want to ever contract as it is usually ongoing for evermore and makes life very miserable in the process.
