Sunburn? Follicutitis? Lyme Disease?! Rocky Mountian Spotted Fever?!?!

I am a Boy Scout from Lawrence KS with a rash that does not make any sence. About 1 month ago, I was at a Boy Scout camp in Missouri in about 90 degree weather. About  2/3s the way through camp, I discovered a rash that had developed on my back. It was a redish type rash that was in big areas on my back. Then, one day later, the rash had a burning prikling type feeling that was painful. About a day before, I was working in tall grass doing labor for the camp moving trees. My dad and I noticed that it only burned when I was sweating or outside, because it did not burn when I was in the dinning hall, which is A/C.We went to the health lodge and the doctor cut open one of the pores and said that it looked like follicutities and gave me enough stariods to last me through camp. I took a shower, and that helped. I only took one (forgot to take the rest). I kept burning for about 2 more days than stopped. About 2 weeks after camp, I noticed a bull-eyes type rash on my leg. At camp, I was bittened by a tick for more than 2 days, but it was on by shoulder. We went to the doctor and got a blood test for Lyme Disease. We waited for about 1 1/2 weeks when they finally called and said that the test was border line positive for Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. I was put on Doxycycline, I think, for ten days. I did not take the medicane correctly though for I took with food for the first 4 days and did not take it at least 1 hour before food. Last weekend, I was at a scout camp in Kansas near KC, working out in the sun again in tall grass for 1/2 day. I took the medication and I got a bad sunburn on my arms, neck, and head, so we stopped the next morning. When I came home and took a shower, I noticed the same rash I had at summer camp before, but this time on my stomach. On the following Monday, I got on my bus after school, sat down, and the same burning pain I had at summer camp. We went back to the doctor and she said that it was was not follculitis, and said it was probally a reaction to the Doxycycline. She took me off it, but on Tuesday I was still having the same burning pain. I have been taking generic allergy medicene, but still burns. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!?!?!

i don't know if this will help, but i know that over the last 3 months my brother has some similar symptoms. we found out today he as Rocky Moutain Spotted Fever. the only thing i can tell you is to get a second opinion from another doctor. we had to go through 5 until they finally figured out what it was. good luck!
