I've done a lot of reading up on Lyme Disease. Antibiotics may not completely cure it, (new findings). Sometimes your own system keeps it in remission and you don't know you even have it. It can affect the body in many different ways, from mental conditions, (and learning disabilities), to arthritis, fevers, heart problems and more. Fibromyalgia like. Many Lyme tests are inconclusive, and give false negatives, although there is a newer antibody test that is pretty accurate. You don't always get a bullseye rash, and the tick does not have to be attached for any length of time for you to contract the disease, (latest studies).
