Thanks for the links to NORD, which is one of the websites I have been getting information from. I am not sure who I can get a second opinion from. My current doctor is not well verse in Bartonella, like most doctors in Colorado. According to NORD there are no physicians in this state. My natural path doctor has been the one who found the Bartonella, and even she is having a hard time treating my diagnosis. I'm not sure where to go. I seen many specialist, such as a neurologist and they just diagnose me with fibromyalsia. All these health issues is exhausting mental, physically, and emotionally. I have attempted to reach out to many, but no response or they shrug their shoulders because they don't know how to treat me. I am hoping that someone has a resource or someone I can get in touch with.

@jvovoss I’m really sorry to hear your having such trouble getting a diagnosis! I have 2 suggestions: you might find an infectious disease doctor (ask at your local hospital) and/or a rheumatologist ( the good ones have been educated in putting all the diverse symptoms together when diagnosing). Check with the major medical centers near you or a university medical center.
What symptoms specifically made your naturopath think of cat scratch fever? We’re you diagnosed with this 4 years ago or have you had all these symptoms for a long time?
Let us know what you are able to learn.
