A member asked:

Can you be bitten by a tick and not know? maybe on my head in my hair? having numerous symptoms for a month. wondering if i have lyme disease..

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See details: About 70% of patients with documented lyme disease never remember having a tick bite or the characteristic rash. If you believe you may have lyme disease, see your doctor and get tested.
