Well, Lyme literate doctors are apparently hard to find, or not, but seems GP's may kind be kind of "cavalier" about it, Lyme Disease is not something you want left undetected.
One approach is to see a doctor, possible or likely you'll get a significant dose of anti-biotics, to "knock it out" so to speak, but that interferes with testing apparently, so you have to clear those anti-biotics for a few weeks, before those can be done, and thats not really developed yet, not an exact science on it if you will, maybe there are some updates, would need to research that.
Those deer ticks are thick here now, we never had any when I was a kid, lots of deer, lots of ticks, been nailed so many times now, you just can't avoid them, boy though, it does teach you to have "thin skin" as the least little sensation I send a search party out, now I'm so bad, I swear sometimes you think you feel one marching around on you and its nothing, maybe a no see-um at worst.
I've gone to the doc, but I believe each time its been less than 36 hours, mostly less than 24 hours, some leave a nice welt at the sight of the bite, discolor vividly, never a bulls eye rash, or symptoms, still worries you though, about Lyme, as you have been bit, darned things are nasty, I've known people to get sick from other tick born illnesses, a weakened person, old or feeble would not be good. What in H$ll purpose those serve I'll never know.
I often times notice them now, before they start drilling, just sit down for dinner, one will start crawling down your face, and they're these flat, hard, crustacean like things, (hate em!) or down your arm, like at thanksgiving dinner or something, guaranteed in my neighborhood! LOL ! Just sit down to have a meal at the end of the day, they show up. Sometimes, I've gotten them and cannot figure out where from, not been in the woods, field or anything, horses, or a barn cat possibly, while working up there got nailed 6x like that spring 2011. Be nice to let chickens loose, fox and coyote ruin that.

Today's Featured Article - A Belt Pulley? Really Doing Something? - by Chris Pratt. Belt Pulleys! Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
