Hi lymemommy - welcome to our forum! I'm so sorry to hear about
your son - but at least he got diagnosed, and early at that, so that at least is good news.
I live in NJ, so if you enable your email address by editing the "My Profile" section, I can give you information for the couple of doctors I of know in the area (We don't post doctor's names directly on the forum for privacy reasons).
For information on finding a Lyme Literate Medical Doctor(LLMD) in your area, please email our long time member, Dan's Mother at:
