Guest guest Posted January 4, 2000 Report Share Posted January 4, 2000 HI EVERYONE, Sorry that I haven't been contributing much lately...I'll tell you more about that soon, but right now, I need help. I have been in contact with a reporter from the East Hampton Star who is doing an article on our plight. She would like to know the identity of the 17 physicians under investigation by the OPMC. Does anyone know who they are? She is extremely sympathetic to our cause and wants to help. Also, if anyone knows of anyone who lives on the East End of L.I. who has been denied treatment for Lyme disease by their insurance company, PLEASE have them contact me ASAP. Thanks, Joan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 5, 2000 Report Share Posted January 5, 2000 Hi Everyone, Thanks to those of you who responded. I had no intentions of releasing any info that was meant to be kept quiet, and I didn't. The reporter wanted to confirm the fact that 17 of our LLMDs are being investigated. She has already been in contact with Dr.O. and Dr.B., and I told her that she should any get info from them. It is nice to have a sympathetic reporter on our side. I'll let you know when the article is published. Thanks, Joan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 My daughter had mosquito bites that she scratched and they got infected a little bit. I went a put antibiotic cream on them and they developed a big red ring around them. Very symetrical. She has a reaction to penicilin(augmented) . She is very cranky and crying. I thnk a fever too. I am off to the doctors but I would rather get some advice from you guys first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How old is she??? Not uncommon at all for infected bites... > > > > > My daughter had mosquito bites that she scratched and they got > > infected a little bit.

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 I remember reading something about it, where it used to be dear tics, now it's all ticks, mosquitos, and a few other bugs. I think I may have read it on the Lyme induced autism website. www.lymeinducedautism.com Re: [ ] Re: Urgent!!! Lyme from a mosquito bite. I thought you got that from ticks.

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 I just got back from the doctor. He said she is probably having a reaction to the antibiotic cream that I put on. Who knows. I also asked him to suggest a probiotic and he didn' t seem to know. This stuff has me going in circles. There are so many probiotsc and so many different strains. HOw do you know what to use? My dd is on Diflucan too. Man, I feel like I should have been on probiotics yestereday!

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 This happened to my sister's guy, nt 11 year old. Just had a very allergic reaction for some reason, was strange. She ended up taking him into urgent care and he got on antibiotics. I live in WI and mosquitoes are our state bird! [ ] Urgent!!!

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 I called the doctor again and he said that the lyme bite ... looks like a bug bite with a halo around it. Hope he is right! Thank goodness it looks nothing like that.

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 Called the doctor and he said he is pretty sure its not lyme disease. He really thinks its a reaction to the topical antibiotic I used. She has allergic reactions to penicillin to. I just thought that I used this cream before and i don't remember a reaction like this. he said wait a day or two On Aug 26, 2008, at 7:46 PM, beigetable wrote: > Burrascano's protocol, with other info, is here: > > http://www.ilads.org > > What is relevant is the early-Lyme protocol, not the treatment for > chronic Lyme. > > Alternative MDs might prescribe the Ilads/Burrascano protocol; > mainstream MDs probably will not.
