Yeah, I'm not one of those "my doctor said so" people. I know what you mean though.
I am being very laid back while I consider treatment and waiting for the labs he ordered through quest to come back. I went Monday, and had everything forwarded to my primary (even though he is almost useless... knows nothing about small fiber neuropathy. I actually think he is frightened of it. It was his PA actually who discovered my crazy high ANA- so I'll probably stick with her as my primary)

The lyme doctor gave me a packet of his info and research to give to my primary doctor and is willing to work hand in hand with him. This guy is a real doctor and knew things that most average primary doctors do not. He went over my blood work and asked me if I was checked for this, that, and the other thing (not having to do with lyme....) He is the first doctor who recommended a hematologist to find out why my ferrritin and copper are so low. He recommends a mammogram soon because I turned 40.
I do think he is a mad scientist who obsesses on tick borne illness, but that might not be a bad thing- since it is a possibility.
