Zithromax is a medication used for cpn -
red pimples can be from cpn.

red pimples, but harder and they expand into larger pimples. These start as 2-3 in area and then a rash spreads around them?

I call them lesions after having them for 4 or more years. I've had them on my chin, my neck(nape), tops of both feet, both elbows and under both breasts.

Mine are felt under the skin before they even surface. Mine will itch like crazy unless I get cream or Tea Tree oil to it quickly several times a day.

They come and go with regularity, about every 2 weeks. No sooner than I get them healed and skin clear, there they are again.

I have myco pN(no lung issues at all), but I believe they are bartonella until proven otherwise. Some illness from a Lone Star nymph embedded tick in May '05.

Sound familiar?

Go to 2nd page of this---
http://aolsearcht11.search.aol.com/aol/image?q=images+of+fungal+rashes&v_t=client_searchbox&s_it=searchtabs

a lot of lyme rashes resemble various fungal rashes which have different names ---plus fungals are secondary of late lyme esp if immune system is compressed...I myself have lyme vasculitis - get a lot of like purple bruise rases then slowly clear with an irregular pinkish ring plus even get spots on ankles and instep that one can take for gangrene plus I have acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans ACA-
my husband who also had lyme (deceased) had on feet tinia pedis, eccomoysis, morphea and much more - was being treated for fungals...horrible pain in feet--THOSE ITEMS ARE NOT JUST IN EUROPE. Plus on pub-med abstracts a lot of those symptoms are listed with the borrelia infection...

.I wish I could send photos too...oh shingles rash resembles lyme too.....I had it once....
