I think I am relapsing after 13 years with various symptoms and over the past few days I have several mosquito bite looking spots that itch like crazy on my stomach and legs.

When I had Lyme's 13 years ago, I did not get the bullseye rash but a similar version to what I have now. It is not as widespread now as it was in '93.

Is this further evidence of a relapse? Can you get the same type of rash again? Thanks for your help. ~Nancy

Nancy-

Looking back, what I thought was a red welt from a "spider" was apparently a tick bite.

Are there mosquitoes out now in Ohio?
