[QUOTE="Josie, post: 385267, member: 1792"] I hope one of the blood tests is for Lyme. Has your son had any ticks, bug bites, or rashes recently? Any flu-like symptoms? Here is an article about Lyme and swollen knees. [URL]http://www.lymedisease.org/news/lyme_disease_views/379.html[/URL] There is a huge controversy over Lyme testing and treatment with the IDSA (Infectious Disease Society of America - the experts) promoting guidelines that many patients feel miss or undertreat Lyme. I wish I had known about it when my daughter had her bullseye rash. Instead, I believed the doctor when I was told my daughter didn't have Lyme and she went untreated. Now, she is chronically ill and disabled for the most part. Especially if your son's blood tests do not come back with the JRA markers, you should look into this for yourself and make up your own mind about how much to pursue Lyme. [/QUOTE]
