My husband and I are beginning the conversation about when to do testing with him and the children. On one hand, we want to know, but on the other hand we can't afford to treat all of us at once. How do you hold off on something like that once you know?
We had signed the older two up for soccer a while back. I keep a calm face, but it breaks my heart that they came home from practice this week crying because they are in pain. Part of me thinks that they're just belly-achin because it's the start of the season, and the other part of me knows it's not true. I don't know for sure about anything. It seems simple. Test them, treat them. But my Dr. Lyme Specialist doesn't treat kids, and has given the advice to just get me better first. I am having a real problem with this, but I don't know how I would keep up with what I have to do while getting them through it.
I don't get it. This whole thing feels like an emergency to me - a long, slow-motion, train-wreck of an emergency, but no one is talking about it.
