Tick bite and aches: You should definitely see your physician as you may have lymes or other disease without a rash. You still can be treated. See your doctor as soon as possible.

Had possible tick bite. After 3 days a bit of nausea en slight abdominal discomfort. No other symptoms. Is nausea 3 days after bite a possible symptom? Or is this more rare and is muscle ache and fever more a sign of lyme disease? Thank you !!
