Hi:
My wife, Jane, was bitten by a tick while visiting her mother on Shelter
Island, one of the Lyme capitals of the world.
Anybody out there with knowledge of what should be done immediately to deal
with the possibility (probability?) of infection with Lyme?
My understanding is that if you catch it early, it is easier to eliminate,
but doctors here in Vermont don't know much about dealing with Lyme.
There is actually too much information on the web, if you can believe that,
she wants an answer fast and my head is spinning with the many Lyme articles
I have already read, none of which were targeted at what to do right away if
bitten.
We were told here that you have to wait four weeks to test to see if you
have been exposed to Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme spirochete), and then the
test (not sure what test they are talking about) costs $200, is NOT covered
by Medicare or our health insurance, and may or may not be reliable.
Anybody know about that?
Thanks,
Del
