[QUOTE="Josie, post: 164996, member: 1792"] We are treating very aggressively for Lyme with another doctor. We have to go 600 miles away to find a doctor who will recognize and treat it. I did see the bullseye rash but didn't know what it was at the time. My mom was then diagnosed with Lyme and told me to watch for a bullseye rash so I knew. My daughter's doctor wouldn't treat without seeing the rash and said we don't have Lyme in Texas. Then another doctor told my mom she probably didn't have Lyme either. My mom did get treated at the time. About 3 months later, my daughter started having symptoms of sore throat and not feeling well. She was diagnosis'ed with strep without a culture. I kept taking her back to the doctor thinking the antibiotics didn't work but when they did test, the tests were negative. That is when her headaches started too. There is no doubt in my mind that it is Lyme. Unfortunately, that was 4 years ago. We didn't figure it out until about 6 months ago. My daughter is getting better but it is just going very slowly. Her headache is not being helped as much as some of her other symptoms. It is very interesting to me that her raging, easily hurt feelings, and extreme irritability have gone away with Lyme treatment. Her anxiety is much better also. Unless you are reading Lyme boards, you never see these as possible symptoms of Lyme. Once she is better, I will have to go on a mission to educate people about Lyme. It is a terrible disease and it is made worse by doctors not believing in it. I'm hoping that even though her headaches are caused by Lyme that migraine treatment will help. Her headaches were controlled by migraine treatment for a couple of years. [/QUOTE]
