Good luck FS, good thing you saw it and can be treated, if needed, early.

My wife has had Lymes 3 times and each time we were fortunate to see the rash in time to get treated for a complete cure.

No problems

Ticks 101:
Deer Ticks are the bad boys that carry lyme. They're tiny, pin head sized and will create a bulls eye sore on you that increases in size fairly rapidly.

I had the run of the mill tick but got 2 doses of antibiotics just in case. The trick to get these guys to back out is to put vaseline or bacitracin (spelling?) on them, they start to suffocate and instinctivly start to back out. The Dr. said even if a leg or tick part is still under your skin, don't dig it out, your body will take care of that on its own. My guess is a via a big white head zit.
