[quote=Anonymous]My Lyme-suspected tick bite started as a pea-sized lump and turned into a 1.5-inch circular rash. A few similarly sized rashes formed nearby and others have come & gone on my torso. No bullseye. I’m on week 3 of antibiotics, but I still feel horrible on & off with odd symptoms. Still have the lump but rash has faded. They can’t do reliable Lyme testing until week 6, so this is the recommended route of treatment if Lyme is suspected. I have had at least 5 other known ticks over the years, but they all healed right up, didn’t swell, weren’t painful, didn’t rash, and didn’t leave any bump which was the first sign something was off for me. I’d just get the antibiotics, OP. Make sure your kid eats well to avoid stomach or yeast issues.[/quote]
