I'll probably adhere to that advice and see the sawbones since I have a couple other things going on inside I'm not sure about. (The aging process sure does suck).
When I had my first bout with Lyme's a couple of years ago I asked if I could be tested after I finished my medication to make sure it was gone and I was told it's like polio or hepatitis, you will always test positive (maybe they call it false positive or something) for it once you've had it. I had read that the disease reacts more severely with testosterone which is why more men get the big telltale bulls eye and high fever and chills reaction and unfortunately it can be missed in women and therefore not treated.
I did a little research today and found this which is pretty easy to read without the technical mumbo jumbo:

Thanks again.
