Lyme disease treatment usually takes two or three weeks.
 After Lyme infection onset, antibodies of types IgM and IgG usually can first be detected respectively at 24 weeks and 46 weeks, and peak at 68 weeks
 Several months after treatment for Lyme arthritis, if joint swelling persists or returns, a second round of antibiotics may be considered; intravenous antibiotics are preferred for retreatment in case of poor response to oral antibiotics
