I believe I was infected back in 1987 but doctors were not looking then for it. But I would like to know is it posible to have test to determin if I was infected and still have lyme diese.
In 87 I had a bite/rash on my upper groin which was followed by sever flu like symtoms. As well as lots of unexplanible health issues.
