Test: Being a paramedic increases one's risk of exposure to Covid19. As you know, there are reports of many asymptomatic persons actually spreading the virus to others. I think it would be advisable for someone in your situation to seek testing for Covid19.

Flu? Lyme? Covid 19?: Hard to guess, you are paramedic , that is in favor of covid 19 but you are young and no cough that is agaisadnst covid 19. You have tick bite but no rash so you wonder if it can be lyme? Ache and malaise goes with flu. So, contact with doctor preferably online , probably need testing including covid 19.
