A member asked:
If you don't remember getting bit, what are the lyme symptoms to watch for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many & varied: Only half of those with lyme recall a tick bite; likely can be caused by other insect bites. Bullseye rash often not seen, then flu-like symptoms, then migrating joint pains (often 1st in knees), fatigue, poor memory/concentration, can't find right word, blurred vision. Can cause virtually any symptom, often misdiagnosed as chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, arthritis, MS etc. See comment re: diagnosis.
