Daughter needs Lyme testing

No he wasn't open to it at all. Said Lyme can't be transferred through pregnancy. I stopped listening after that because warning bells go off when a doc can't have an open mind and look at other research beside their one paragraph they learn in med school.

Does this sound like Lyme to you guys? I'm always worried about it but not sure

Yea I agree. Maybe I will look into that urine test.

Also my environmental doc said I could pass mold onto her or my mold counts were so high we are wondering if the house we are staying in has it.

I think in utero. I had no idea I had Lyme at the time my symptoms started to come out while pregnant, And took two years to really bring my body down after that. I breastfed her for a long time about two years. So of course I am worried about passing bartonella because I know that can be passed through breast milk. Doc tried telling me yesterday Lyme can't be passed in utero.

Another new symptom now is she feels like she has to pee as soon as she's done peeing. So she'll pee and then pull her pants up and then two seconds later say she has to pee again and does this a few times. Doc said she had 10,000 abnormal cells in urine but that he doesn't treat until 50,000 at least. I am thinking maybe UTI but not sure if that would make her not want to swallow. Maybe nauseous?

My husband is going back this morning to ask for another urine container for them to test for UTI. She did have leukocytes in urine too.

No fever....but still tiredness and not eating well at all. Yesterday all she wanted was pediasure and marshmallows and even some of the marshmallows she spit out. Said she didn't like some of them.

I would encourage you to not let go of this and to switch doctors if needed. When I was 7 yrs old, I started having many repeated instances of "childhood illnesses" - all fairly normal, only I kept getting them over and over again - along with other "unexplainable" issues. I was able to piece together (with the help of my Mom) that I had all the symptoms of RMSF, Lyme, Bartonella and others even back then - but there wasn't one single doctor that could help. Of course, back then, there was no such thing as a LLMD and tick-borne infections weren't known about back then (late 60's/early 70's).

This is a most wonderful site with nearly all the information about kids with these diseases. You may find it an invaluable resource for identifying which issues may be connected to these diseases:
