One of the better Lyme doctors out there is Dr. Joseph Jemsek, who is located in Washington, D.C.
Dr. Jemsek has a great website with a wonderful write-up on Lyme and its most common co-infections. Click on the link below, and then select "Knowledge Base" for either the long or short version:

David,
this is exactly what the lyme dr in NY says. He also said that it is much harder to treat than lyme.
