I am so sorry, I don't know of any yet. But I will pray for you guys! It's so hard to know your babies are sick. Is she symptomatic?

Hi Apennysaved,
Welcome to our community! I'm so glad that you found us!
First of all, I would like to explain why I had to edit your post - Admin doesn't want any personal information posted on this site. We are an 'open forum', meaning that anyone with access to a computer can read these posts, and could get your email address if it's posted. We prefer that you enable your email option through your profile as only members will have access to it that way.

I do have a few referrals that I would be happy to share with you, although I don't know that any of them are actually Pediatric LLMD's. If you wish to still have these referrals, please email me by either clicking on my user name or the little blue envelope under my name. Please include the area you are looking in, that you would like to find a Ped. LLMD and your user name to help me keep it all straight - LOL! Thank you!!

Hi apennysaved. Welcome to the forum!! You need to enable your email address in your profile so people can send you the names of doctors, since we're not supposed to post names on the forum. I hope someone here will be able to help you find a good doctor for her.

I'm sorry you have to watch her go through this. My daughter was around the same age when we started to realize that something was wrong and she was diagnosed with Lyme about 3 years ago. She's 26 now. She had headaches to start with and still has them. Part of it is from a lack of exercise and sitting so much. Any way, I know what you're going through and I hope you have supportive people in your life to help you as you start her healing program.

You will learn a lot here and get the support you need. Let us know how things go.

I would suggest you purchase Stephen Buhner's books:

Herbal Antibiotics,
Herbal Antivirals,
Healing the Lyme Coinfections: Bartonella and Mycoplasma

and read them.

You can also start searching his website for information. His associate is available for consult, but all information can be found on his site and in his books.

I would get some help from his associate and start initiating a low dose herbal protocol (even just the anti-inflammatory japanese knotweed will help) while you try to find someone to guide you. His protocols can be used in conjunction with abx and starting low and slow with herbals may give your daughter some relief.

We are having as much luck with herbals (or even more) as we did with abx.

Hang in there and RESEARCH.

Just my 2 cents:

Breathing - babesia or mycoplasma
Joints - lyme

Hi Penny,
Let's see if I can help you with the email situation.

Go to your profile, then go to "edit profile". Scroll down just a touch and you should see "show my email". Choose this option and be sure that your email address is listed just above that. Then be sure to scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the submit button to save your choices.

And no problem about you having listed some personal info, we just would rather see you have a bit of privacy is all. No one needs more spam!
