Even if you were tested for Lyme disease, get a repeat test about 3 to 4 weeks later. I was told it should be repeated by rheumatologist with Western Blot test. Keep trying to find out what is causing your symptoms. Also, keep a journal of your symptoms. I hope you get some answers.

Also if you have any positive bands that are "Lyme specific" on a Western Blot it may be positive. The CDC wants a certain number of bands for both IgM and IgG and Lyme doctors will go by one specific band, or sometimes even by symptoms. Sometimes the more serious Lyme symptoms can show up long after a tick bite.
