If your child is seeing Dr. J in CT, or any other well respected LLMD, would you please take a moment and PM me your child's abx regimine? With dosages.

I am in Texas and was able to get the ER clinic to perscribe amoxicillin for my 9 year old who is 85 lbs, but am afraid it is not a high enough dosage. He has not had a herx yet, started abx 4 days ago. He was bitten on July 4, 2013.

We are going to see a Dr next week who treats children with lyme, do not know if she is considered an LLMD, so we will see. I would like to have a good idea of what other good Ped LLMD's perscribe so I can go in knowing what to ask.

Thank you, Karen
