im curious to know how many of you ever found any kinda lyme rash...? my son has never had any kinda rash or bullseye that we found. i have been noticing that since he has been on the iv antibiotics he has been a little rashy, kinda looks like a heat rash on his arms but its mild.

My Lyme was finally diagnosed because of the presence of a rash....not a bullseye or EM rash.
My rash was raised (didn't itch or hurt) and started around my ankles, and moved upwards to mid-shin. Also was on the insides of my calves.

The biopsy came back as granuloma annulare, but my LLMD told me it was a Lyme rash called granuoma majorlare (which I've looked up and can't find).

I thank God for that rash....33+ years undiagnosed
and everyone thought I was nuts....
Good Luck!

I forgot to tell you that those rashes would last exactly 3 weeks, fade, then peel like a sunburn.

I have a very small (lima bean size) patch on my hand, it has been there for over 3 months. It's a
little faded, but I think my LLMD is using it as a marker of some sort.

Not sure if this helps....
