[Guest guest]

Sandy and I have the same questions It's a very long way for me .Dr. Crist

is somewhat closer. But he does not take ins. After you pay he will file for

you. I don't know what my insurance will pay for. His first consult is

550.00.Please answer privately if you like.

-I would like to know more about Dr Jemsek clinic.

I am planning on making an appointment there. It is about 250 miles

one way. How does he decide who will get the IV's?

How often do they want you to come? Are you better?

What else is different about his treatment? I am sorry for all the

questions but making a decision to see true LLD has been one that

goes around in my head.

After the discussions from the group I think it is my best bet to go

ahead with one.

Please let me here about these questions.

Thanks,

Sandy

Sorry but I think that's simply disgusting...500 dollars or more for a

consultation?

Not a question of what my health is worth.. Most people who are ill don't

have 500 or more to lay out for a consulation fee and a lot of ins co's won't

pay that much either.

Back when my battle first started with Lyme in 1994 I was covered by my job.

Once I had to stop working my boss paid my insurance for me for a yr. After

that I had no ins. I was married at the time but his job wouldn't cover me so

there was nothing.. The end result which is the same result for a lot of

people who are sick with no coverage is you start out by hocking everything you

can. Then you end up running up all the credit cards until they're maxed out

and finally? Bankruptcy. My mom at the same time had been diagnosed with Lyme

as well so we were actually rationing meds between us as she had no coverage

either. My in home nurse was buying us groceries...It was a horrible time...

they paid 80% percent on mine of 750 dollars, also

most people who dont have lyme dont have to go thru

this,but you will because you have a disease that they

wont acknowlegde in the medical field so in a sense

you r stuck. if you dont have the money and I mean

realy dont then you have to figure a differant way out

maybe by trying to cantact lyme groups to find some

way of getting thru this.

I support this idea greatly. I came to this forum to learn, get new ideas and

support. Every is trying different things to treat their lyme. Different

people respond to different treatment. We need to support every ones right to

find some thing that will help them. Not bash one another. I have a friend in

my town that is trying a wholistic treatment. We have chosen antiobotic. God

forbid that I not be there for him as his friend and support cause he is doing

some thing different. Its working for him, but our treatment is working for us.

Lyme is horrible enough with out the debates, we need support.

Is there anything we can do to make things different regarding lyme.

It seems we need to all stick together and support each other so that

we can try to get more support from medicine.

That is exactly right we need to find a way to stand together, because I have

been sick for 5 years with this went blind twice, and am literally throwing up

daily. I have been diagnosed with migraines, GERD, MS, manic depressive

disorder, the list goes on until the opthalmologist found the lyme. Just went

to a neuro for the headaches and tremors and was told there was absolutely no

lyme in the state of Tennessee. That the CDC sends people out to each state

into different areas and takes samples of so many ticks and then checks them and

that is how they decide where there is a lyme infestation. The Infectious

disease specialist I went to had no clue you had to be off of antibiotics for

six weeks before doing a western blot. She told me I had RA I had the

neurologist check it and it came back negative. So here we are again don't have

a clue and sometimes I don't feel like a pray of getting the right kind of help.

I can't afford to pay $100.00 for my health or my kids would go

homeless. I have TennCare and they are trying to cut that out for all the

people that is not on disabilty. Which I have been turned down on two days

after I went blind so go figure that out. I didn't mean to rant and rave I am

just so discouraged that I don't know what to do anymore.

God Bless You all and hoping we all get better.
