I had lyme disease a few years ago. I don't even know where I was bitten but I think it was when I was fishing as that was the only time I was outside in a wooded area where I could have really gotten bit. I was sick and had strange symptoms for like 10 days before I went to the doc and actually got a lyme panel. I think it was like they had to have 6 of 12 things match on the panel in order to "officially" diagnose lyme. I had like 4 or 5, but the doc was confident I had it and that we just caught it early, so she put me on some strong antibiotics. Within 2 days of starting the antibiotics my symptoms went away.
