I live in PA, and my then 7-year-old son got it last year. His regular doctor refused to give him antibiotics until 2 weeks later when he was tested, so I took him to the ER & they gave it right away. He was on it for over a month, and we need to watch for flareups. Two of our neighbors also have Lyme. I'm seriously considering getting a herd of guinea hen to combat them. HATE them blood-sucking things. :(
