I was bit by a deer tick about 2 weeks ago and I'm now experiencing a lot of the symptoms of Lyme disease but my primary doesn't think the symptoms are due to the tick bite. Flu like symptoms, can barely use my left arm without major pain, night sweats, major wheezing, blurry vision.

Welcome to Lymenet Jeff
Thank God you found Lymenet ! You have a GREAT window of opportunity to fully eradicate this horrendous disease if treated promptly.
This link will provide you all the necessary information. Print it out and take to your doctor.
If your doctor refuses to treat according to the lastest research, you will need a Lyme Litterate Medical Doctor who specializes in Tick Borne Infections.
Please, please, please, treat this bite ASAP. You must be your own health advocate.
I will send you a private message.

Your doctor will give you the standard Lyme tests, which miss up to 75% of patients who have contracted a Tick Borne Infection, especially in the early stages.
You have been bitten by a tick. You have unexplained symptoms. And the longer you wait, your symptoms might progress to your brain and central nervous system.
Why risk your life ?
Watch " Under Our Skin". A documentary about Lyme Disease.
