I gave my dearest friend information to log-in. She posted this letter, but it may have been in General Discussion.
You may reply by private message to me and I will status my emails daily for her. Tutu gave her some info, but suggested you have an update version of notes and docs.
Sincerely, Lisa/Lymester CT
Lymester, is a great friend of mine in Conneticut, She gave me sign in info... I have not figured out how to get on here myself and really need help. My son is 21, has had a recurring "rash" not bulls eye to his leg since July '09.. He has been on 4 antibiotics, this comes and goes. Because of Lymester, we are seriously questioning if he has Lyme.
When he was treated with tetricycline, he became mildly sick "chest tightness, SOB, uncomfortable". We took it as an allergic reaction, and stopped the antibiotics.
After that he was placed on Azithromax, after 3 days, violently ill, hospitalized overnight for dehydration. WBC of 17,000.
After that we found out from Lymester those are two main meds for Lyme and about the Herx reaction... got us wondering, and worried.
Bryan has also had reddness, peeling, scaling to his left foot (rash on right leg), this writen off as an atheletes foot type thing (for 6 months). He has not noticed Neuro symptoms, however his work has mentioned he has slowed down the last few months.
We convinced his primary MD to order a Western Blot test a week ago after being discharged from hospital. After research, I wonder if the lab in our little town is accurate. We do not have results yet.
Bryan says he feels the area of his rash coming back. I would love to find him a MD in Buffalo or Buffalo area soon so this rash can be checked, and biopsied. It was cultured for MRSA months ago.
I work as a Registered Nurse at Erie County Medical Center in Buffalo and he is covered under my Blue Cross Insurance.
