Depends upon how long you've been infected. If you just got bit last week.. get in NOW with anyone.

IF you've been sick for a yr, there's no hurry.

Yeah, the ol 4 wks and you're cured thing. Sure.

If you start relapsing, you may want to find someone .. a walk-in clinic maybe??

Depends upon in which state you live as to if any of the GPs will help at all. But ask those in your local lyme support group as you will need to find a lyme-friendly GP anyway to monitor your local care.
