[quote=Anonymous]I work in urgent care and our protocol is 6 weeks post exposure to do lab testing if you are symptomatic (joint pain and fatigue most often.) So mark this on your calendar and ignore it for a month or so unless you are feeling bad. Most people who end up with Lymes don't develop a bulls eye, so that's not the be-all of diagnosing. As far as actually testing the tick, that's rarely done. I don't actually know any units/centers/hospitals that do that. It's not CSI.[/quote]
