If you’re comfortable giving the medical area you need, that’d get you much better recommendations.

If your case is that complex, try getting referred to the NIH undiagnosed disease clinic.

thank you I had not heard of them- I see they are in NYC yes I can get there. I just put an inquiry to them- yes I have been to dozens of drs and hospitals and tests and unable to have a clear answer so I will try them.
More suggestions welcomed too please.

I sent an email inquiry to focused diagnostics. They dont appear to have an accessible phone #! It looks great and like just what I need- but they say its a year flat fee which to me seems like it will be very very costly- do you know anything about them more you can tell me? the cost or any experiences with them?

Your question is difficult to answer without knowing th nature of your illness. Start by seeing your Primary Care Physician. I would recommend going to Yale. Someone I know had a complex case and they figured it out. Jay

I dont know what kind of specialist cause I dont know what it is. the symptoms are: I cant breathe. I feel like I am suffocating. It started when I got lyme 6 years ago and took a lot of abx. I thought it was form babesia. I went to a ton of lyme drs. didnt help. I have been working with a great doctor who also helps a lot of ppl with lyme in the last 5 months- he said it is not lyme. he thinks I have something in my body ( like a chemical) irritating the nerves but I am not so sure. he has helped me with other things but babesia is back on the table. My abdomen gets severely bloated but not related to eating and otherwise digestion is fine. My diaphragm feels like it is being squeezed all the time and I cant breathe. I have had chest x rays ekgs blood work etc. no one knows what it is. so maybe a great lyme dr who can confirm if it is babesia. or a great diagnostician.
