I'm new to the group. I was bit by a tick mid-April and last week had all the signs of Lymes Disease (like everyone of them). I went to a walk-in clinic after a week and they gave me 100mg of Doxycycline to take twice a day for 3 weeks. They took my blood and I got the results today and it came back NEGATIVE.
I've been on the antibiotics for 5 days now and I feel a little better but not much. Still very weak, with a headache and achy neck and shoulders. The dizziness has went away.
Can you recommend a doctor near Baltimore? I've heard to many stories about untreated Lymes and I don't want to be one of them.
