Could I have Lyme disease?

Posted By Carolyn  on April 22, 1999 at 09:27:17
Dear Dr.,
     I have posted two previous messages which have not been answered.  Many
kind people have posted messages back to me with their advice.  (previous
messages were on 4/10 and 4/15).  A couple of people suggested that I may have
Lyme disease.  About 10 years ago I was living in the south and pulled a tick off the
top of my head.  Several days later I developed a rash there.  I went to a doctor
who prescribed something (I think it was an antibiotic) and said there was no reason
for a return visit.  I have now been having neurological problems for the past 5 months
or so.  ( I have gone into much detail on my previous posts).  Is it possible that I
could have lyme disease from this incedent? I would very much appreciate your
opinion.  Thanks,  Carolyn.
