My saving grace was that I had the very typical bullseye rash where I was bitten. There was no itching or soreness of any kind. I could have easily missed it since it was on the back of my calf almost to my knee. I knew enough to check myself over good any time I was out in the woods. Had doxy on hand and started it immediately. The ozone therapy I had a colleague do. I was in his office the next day after I noted the rash. We knew a bit more about Lyme by the time I was tick assaulted so I knew what I was dealing with. Many such as yourself, were not as lucky. Who knew. Glad you are doing better though. Hadn't heard of using Ivermectin for treatment. Thanks for tip.
