Everyone from the hospital to the orthopedic doctor was trying to push
steroids on me. I had a very bad reaction to
steroids while having Lyme and refused to take them. Of course everyone thought I was nuts.
Nothing is a real emergency, just super painful, so my LLMD agreed with me not to take them. If there had been an emergency, I would have taken them if I was closely monitored by a doctor.
Just saying, don't think you must follow non Lyme literate docs in certain situations.
