They are not related: Lyme diagnosis and boil are not directly related, however there may be something wrong with your immunity. The outbreaks of boil suggests there may be issue with your skin or general immunity and the Lyme diagnosis may just be found because of the symptoms of something else wrong when you saw doctor 4 months ago. Follow up with your doctor with further evaluation may be okay rather than see a spec

Lyme disease ?'s: Lyme disease even if treated should have a repeat test as some resistance to tetracycline or other antibiotics may allow persistence of Lyme's disease.
