"Do you know what the symptoms are?"

At the site of infection/bite there will be a dark 'bullseye' pattern on/under the skin. If this is not detected (and treated), it will advance next into a condition described as 'flu symptoms.' In the advanced/later stages it gets really serious and is frequently not detectable, arthritis, fatigue, depression and mental confusion are just some of the symptoms. (It will vary somewhat from person to person) I thought I had it at one time and am still not sure I don't.

Thanks, usually a tick bite seems to resemble a pimple. I suppose the "bullseye" is more prominent?

Do you think symptoms still linger with you? Sounds a little scary.
