My nephew has a lyme disaster brewing. He didn't mention the summer flu and tick bite until after the strange hives which were treated with prednisone, twice and after the second treatment, a sharp display of symptoms that sent him to hospital. They have determined that "all tests are negative " and taken him off prednisone, begun treatment with antibiotics and sent him home to find a gp. Please help with referral, he needs to be sure to get proper treatment before things go any further wrong.
