I went away to the mountains last week and got what I thought was just a mosquito bite, so I had scratched it a few times.
I woke up yesterday mornng and this is what appeared

What do you all think this is? A bulls eye? Or just a simple bite that I may have scratched too much?

I did just send these pics to my LLMD, but curious to see what any rash/bulls eye experts may think

I get all kinds of weird marks from any insect bites. i think my body is sensitive to it now because of all the times I got a disease from a bite

so now, any time i get bit my immune system launches a fierce attack. I am already on treatment tho. I don't know what I would do if i go off the abx and then get bit.

are you on tx?

Hi roro, I was on 10 days of cipro but two weeks ago. I'm pulsing abx every 2 months.

That's interesting that you react diffrent to bug bites now. I wonder if that's what happened here to me?!

Thanks :-)

ok, so a DISTURBING update.
My LLMD just emailed me back and she said for sure this is an EM rash and to restart abx right away
I'm freaking out and ****ed!
I can't believe this. She also told me that LLMD's are now saying for sure lyme is spread by mosquitos

This IS disturbing. YIKES.

Good thing you developed that rash though. Otherwise... [Eek!]

I think I would take abx s for at least 30 days.
