Hi all,
I live in surrey in England and my 3 year old son recently got diagnosed with Lyme disease. He was diagnosed after my insistence he was tested and the blood test came back positive. The only signs he had were the typical bulls eye mark and then a rash that looked like ringworm that kept coming and going all over his body. He has had no temperature or flu like symptoms. Anyway, he is allergic to penicillin so was treated with 10 days of azithtomyocin. Having done some research this doesn't seem enough! Anyway, he has been super whiney lately and scared of everything, especially loud noises. Dr google says this could be linked to Lyme. I was hoping to find a specialist somewhere in England who anyone could recommend to take him too as I just don't think the gp has any knowledge of Lyme (he did speak to a specialist for treatment advice). I am really struggling to find any help or advice out there. Can anyone help?
Thanks
Laura
