Hi all, new to Lyme DX haven't started tx just yet. Wondering if anyone has ever had small diffuse hemangiomas on your abdomen and chest, and if so do you think it is Lyme related? Thanks for any advice

Can you explain "diffuse hemangiomas" in another way? Sorry, I don't know what that means...

looks like a blood blister, very small starts off like a little red freckle then starts getting bigger, very vascular, if you try to pop it they will bleed ALOT.

Babesia causes cherry angioma. Not sure if that's the same.

Yes! I have some on my arms, legs, and trunk.

My doctor thinks it's a co infection but not sure which one.

YES! One of my first weird symptoms... I tested negative for babesia but that was through quest...

So do most llmd doctors routinely test for co infections at the start of treatment

I think only some do. I think most LLMD's/LLND's are looking for symptoms and clinical diagnosis, which is what they are supposed to do - even according to the CDC!

The petechial rash is caused by Babesia, but I'm not finding any good pictures of it tonight.
