Mysterious Rash

You might remember a post from a few weeks ago that I found a tick feeding on Luke. Well 2 days ago I found a mysterious looking rash near the bite site; a symptom of Lymes Disease. So back to the Doc we went. The rash was hard to see, because Luke's hair was covering it and Luke is not real cooperative with having us "look" at his scalp. The Rash didn't follow the typical Bulls-eye shape that is associated with Lymes, but lots of times the symptoms of Lymes do NOT follow the "rules'. She said we could do a test, but false negatives are pretty common and given that he has this mysterious rash near a recent tick bite site, she is just going to treat him. The treatment is amoxicillin for 21 days. You should see the size of this bottle. It looks like a pint liquor bottle. One tsp, twice a day for 21 days. hopefully that will do the trcik. You don't want to mess with untreated Lymes Disease.
