Hey everyone - I'm a little frazzled so sorry if I already asked this question - my nephew got bitten twice, has 2 positive bands and 4 swollen lymph nodes. His second pediatrician is refusing to give him antibiotics. I think I posted a few weeks ago asking if anyone knew what herbs were safe for toddlers (he's 2) but I don't know if I asked if anyone could recommend a doctor.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help.
I'm so livid right now - it's one thing when it's me but he's so little and so helpless it breaks my heart that he's getting abused by the medical system.
They say they won't treat until he's "symptomatic!" ...I guess swollen lymph nodes isn't a symptom of lyme disease anymore.
Poor baby.

Thanks everyone - it's baffling to me that after everything I've gone through (I even lived with my sister for 3 months when I was really sick with lyme) she still doesn't seem to "get" any of this.
I gave her a few recommendations and she tells me she doesn't think anyone will treat him because only 2 bands are positive. Tried explaining to her the difference between conventional doctors and LLMDS...hopefully she gets it...this is so frustrating!
