I had an appt for my 8 yr old son today who has been treated since April for Lyme (no co-inf so far)

he's on azith and amox but has noctornal bed wetting (has never been dry at nite) so doc is not sure if it's a sx or 'normal' happening

It has improved, but again we are just not sure if he's just outgrowing a typical childhood problem or it's abx working (this is the only questionable sx remaining)


So she added bactrim and kept the rest the same

I am always nervous when it comes to my kids and always wondering if I am doing the right thing

Anyway... is this not unusual to be on 3 at a time??

Me, my daughter and my son all had appts today so I am now just processing it all and reading about bactrim and wondered about all 3 at once

Thanks for the help!

PLEASE keep a lookout to any adverse reactions to Bactrim. Many people are allergic to sulfa drugs. It put me in the hospital last week.

Keep a lookout for fevers, headaches, rashes or sores.

I wish my doc told me this!

Thx backinstolaf. I too am allergic to it, sulfa part, but I will keep an eye on him
