I am lucky. I got my lyme/babesiosis diagnosis quickly. My question - how soon does the lyme - fatigue diminish? It's been six weeks since rash. Thanks for any help!

Well, I will reply since no one else has.
First, early is a relative term. Yes, the earlier the better......but there are so many intervening factors that it is very very hard to make any predictions.
Here is the best predicition I can make. Yes, symptoms improve with treatment. You will get better. Better is also a relative term. Did you get the rash immeadiately after the bite? A rash can come months or years later.
I wish there were a good answer to your question. Are you seeing a doc recommended by someone from this board? What does your doc say when you ask this question?

It depends on whether it was treated correctly.
Are you still being treated? What medications and doses are you/were you taking?
If you stopped treatment and still have symptoms, then you are most likely still sick. The tiredness will stay until you treat it.
