My 7 years old son was diagnosed with Lyme. Please I need LLDM (prefer pediatric but I am not sure if there is such). We live in Morris County Nj but I am wiling to travel no NY, all NJ or PA. Pretty much up to 2h drive. Thank you so much!!!!

Welcome to Lymenet! PM sent with some suggestions.
Your dear son needs to be evaluated and treated by a Lyme-literate doctor (LLMD). Non LLMDs have no clue about this horrible disease or its complex treatment!
Unfortunately, LLMDs are far and few between. You need to go where they are. Some are LL Pediatricians, others treat both children and adults.
Also, most LLMDs do not take insurance due to the politics surrounding this disease. Read poster TF's explanation about this:
The Lyme Disease Network is a non-profit organization funded by individual donations. If you would like to support the Network and the LymeNet system of Web services, please send your donations to:
