Hello all,
Well the reason I felt so terrible was because I ended up having Lyme disease.. I ended up seeing my family Dr. as I was starting to feel bad again. I was on antibiotics for 15 days and am doing well now. It got me behind my knee, so I didn't notice it at first. They are areal problem in our area. Northwestern Pennsylvania. Thanks for all your responses though.
Best regards,

Hi fxdx1,-
That is great news! It is good that you caught it early enough to treat it successfully. I believe we have seen reports of people that had a Lyme infection that was not diagnosed for a long time and the symptoms and treatment were very challenging.

I have had 2 family members from Pennsylvania ( Lancaster - my original home) that did not notice the hollow red ring around the bite site, but I noticed and reminded them to get treatment urgently. I had a Lyme infection over 20 years ago in the Albany NY area, and got immediate treatment.

We now live in suburban New Jersey and have lots of deer that plague our landscaping and gardens, so the risk of deer ticks is high.

Yes, I am one who was NOT treated for my Lyme despite seeking medical care and telling them I really believe I had Lyme!It transformed later into Chronic Lyme disease and affected my heart.
Coincidentally? I was diagnosed with CLL within a year of my tick bite? 🤔🤔
