Hi

I'm a 35 male and just got back from the Berkshires mountains (11 days ago).

Yesterday I felt miserable, with all the symptoms of the flu. And I had noticed a little redness on my back.

This morning, I still feel like crap and the redness became a fist size rash with a little white circle around it.

I assume that it is lyme disease. But I never noticed a tick bite in my past backpacking trip.

Do you have contact for a doctor in the Brooklyn or New York City, NY?

Thanks for your help!

Go ahead and just see an Infectious Disease doctor or Primary Care doctor first, as it should be an easy diagnosis if the rash is there.

if you catch and treat it this early you should be fine
