Yeah... ummm Chief... that might not be Lyme Disease...
Antibiotics will work for that as well.
Seriously, the bulls-eye (or just red area) is usually a lot larger than 6mm.
Interesting you say that.
The nurse immediately informed me that it looked fresh, 2 maybe 3 day old tick bite. Said that the generic "bulls eye" indication takes almost an entire month to present itself. Immediate treatment and all should be fine she said. Told me I am the 12th person this week to come with the symptoms.
Tigerlilly, thanks. The sore throat and wrist/joint pain sounds very familiar in this case. My hips are killing me!
