Hi I am new to this forum and I am looking for a Lymes Literate MD in North Carolina, hopefully in the Raleigh/Durham area? I am not sure if I have it, but I had meningitis back in March of 2009 and have not been right since. I have heard Lymes can cause meningitis, I still suffer from headaches daily, nausea, depression, memory loss, etc. Help!

Hi ncgirl73,
Welcome to Healingwell Lyme forum. Sorry you are not feeling well!!
One of my earliest symptom was also meningitis. All the symptoms you listed are common Lyme symptoms.

If you have not already; please start by reading the new to Lyme.....start here sticky at the top of our forum page. There is a wealth of information there for anyone that suspects a vector borne disease as a possible cause of their illness.

Hopefully one of our members will be able to assist you with finding a LLMD in your area. You could also visit http://www.ilads.org/ or http://turnthecorner.org/ for doctor referrals.

Best wishes
