So how long does it take to get severely hurt by lyme’s disease?

I got bit by a tick about four months ago, and just now I broke out into a rash, and got black and blue around the spot where the tick bit me. On Monday I’m going to the doctor’s for testing to see if I have lyme’s disease. I’ve been afraid to go to sleep; if this is stage one, when will stage two occur? 0_o Will I make it until Monday??? Thanks..
Okay, thanks. 
It’s just the fact that just NOW I get this rash; I didn’t know how quickly the second stage hits. That helps me a lot…

you’ve made it four months, I doubt you will die by Monday.
there is no time table, everyone responds to infection differently.

There are no “stages” in Lyme disease. Most people develop a rash shortly after the tick bite. Flu-like symptoms develop (weakness, achenes). Antibiotic treatment usually helps with the symptoms.See your doctor and suggest oral antibiotic treatment to be safe.
