Thank you erythema migrans, the bull's eye rash that signals the first stage of Lyme disease. Even though you did not present yourself in the usual pattern, the fact that you came at all and made me aware of the possibility of Lyme disease, is something I am grateful for. One out of five people does not get the rash and progresses unknown to stage two or three of the disease. My daughter has a good chance to escape this debilitating disease with a strict regimen of antibiotics for a month.Another shout of thanks to fate. If it would not have been for Ben getting so sick with Lyme disease 2 years ago, I would have never done all that research and I would not have taken this as serious as I did. It makes me think that the suffering of one can bring salvation for another in a roundabout way.
OMG!!! Barb, I'm so happy that you figured this out. and so sorry that you have a month of antibiotics to go through! I hope it all goes quickly and smoothly away....

Oh well, I was wrong about the first stage. Still good thought that the rash appeared, if we are really lucky we have a chance to control it with aggressive measures before it becomes a chronic disease.
