If I recall correctly, the tick transmits the disease when it purges blood as it backs out. If you get the tick while it's still attached your chances of contracting the disease are reduced. Still a good idea to get checked out especially if you get some flu like symptoms. Good luck at the Doc's, x2 on the finishing the perscription advice.
