Do you have a bulls eye rash? Either way, you should go to the doctor right away. You don’t want to mess around with lyme disease if that’s what it is.

It could be Lyme, but also could be something else like Mono. After a lyme tick bite, most but not all people get a bullseye rash. You should see an infectious disease specialist and get tested.
Since the lyme test is not that accurate, many Dr’s will also prescribe antibiotics right away while they wait for the test results. Lyme is easier to treat right after the bite, so don’t waste time.
