Try the link below for the Lyme Disease Assoc. website. It will allow you to search for a Lyme Literate MD in Pediatrics. You enter your zip code to search.

Lyme is in Florida. I was bit in Orlando. I had a very difficult time finding a doctor there too. I moved to the Carolina's and found a wonderful LLMD here. I have heard that there is a good LLMD in Tampa. I will try to find info and PM you.

Yes, please check into the Dr. in Tampa. He is a wonderful man. I know he treats a young girl of 14, so I would think he would see your 12 yr old son.
