For the most part, farm ponds around here aren't all that grown in. OTOH, I live in the epicenter of Lyme Disease and have had it twice and any venture into the weedy outdoors brings with it the chance of catching this shitty ailment. In fact, I'm taking Doxycycline right now for my latest bout with this disease. I think I caught it in time (I still had the dreaded bullseye rash when I started antibiotics). Hopefully, I nipped it in the bud.

Never had that particular affliction. Don't you wind up with a low grade fever and just basically feel like shit all of the time?

That's the start of it. Then it goes to your joints. Then it crosses the blood/brain barrier and really starts phucking with you, giving symptoms that are frequently misdiagnosed as any number of psychological/neurological conditions. That's when the real fun starts.

My doctor came down with it, and he says the same thing.

It's sometimes called "the great imitator" because it can mimic nearly 300 other ailments. This makes it extremely difficult to diagnose if you don't display the tell-tale bulls-eye rash.

It took them several months to diagnose him, but he was suffering from another affliction at the same time, and that's where they were concentrating their efforts.

I've exhibited a lot of the symptoms other than the fever. As far as that goes, I generally run 1-2 degrees on the cool side.
