Medical Mysteries
We think that Hunter has Lyme's Disease.
He was bitten by a small tick while we were in MN. He had a fever for a couple of days in MN. Back home he had a headache for a couple of days and then on Thursday a red line showed up on his face. I thought he had slept on it during his nap. The line didn't go away. Althought now it looks splotchy and there is another spot on his other cheek. He's been tired and cranky lately. On Sunday we noticed some round, red rings on his back, chest and legs. 
I took him to the pediatrician on Monday and he had some blood drawn. We are now waiting for the blood work to come back. Then we will really know if he does indeed have lyme's and then he can get some anitbiotics. Cannon also had a small tick on him, but so far, no symptoms.
Yesterday Audrey developed what we think is hives.
We don't know how or why she has them. They seem to be a little itchy, but otherwise don't bother her. The Dr.'s office said to give her benedryl. 
SO, any ideas on what we should do or what these spots on our kids could be?
