Children and Lymes disease

My 10 year old son was bitten by a tick when he was 2, at the time we were told no problem as he did not develop a rash.  He has real problems with concentration and complains about joint pains - I have taken him to the doctor and suggested Lymes but they think I'm just an over anxious mother can anyone help me here?

I would suggest finding a Lyme specialist for testing.  I have heard it can be difficult to find a Lyme doctor in the UK, but it's worth doing.  

I just searched online for "lyme uk support" and found quite a few links that can give you information.  You are wise to have noted the symptoms and to want to follow up on them.  

Please let us know if we can help further.  Best wishes to your family --
