When babies (1 year old) have Lyme, how do the LLMD's typically treat?

A friend wants to know.

Thanks!

Amoxicillin, I think. They can't take Doxy. Ceftin could also be used.

I know Doxy can't be used in children and that they usually use Amoxicillin, I'm not sure if they use anything else in addition though.


I'm so sorry to hear that your 1 year old might have Lyme!

Does your friend need LLMD names and, if so, in what state?

Do you have a list of pediatric LLMD's for PA?

Was hoping some of the mom's on here would share their stories.

Thanks!

My daughter caught lyme first at that age, 1, bite on the head. She got bad from that same day, with tummy pains.

We used amoxy, but it didn't work at all. Ticks are so much infected, and amoxy is so weak.

Second time, second bite, again amoxy, as she was still small. 5 weeks, it did nothing, she went in real trouble. Loads of digestive problems that took many months to heal.

Third time, we never touched amoxy nor any antibiotic anymore. The job is harder, as you have to use many herbs, homeopathics, alternative treatment really, to keep all the infections under control and diminish pain.

but they worked. A lot of tuning, trial and error, energy tests. She has been bitten every year, almost. Now, looking back all these years, I think we would never use abx as a first alternative anymore. Her gut got so messed, and on top, lyme didn't improve at all.

I would go directly through photon therapy, then all those supplements and herbs to clean.
