I have a rash diagnosed as possible lyme disease by a dermatologist. I also have very high titers on repeated ebv for the past year. The current bullseye rash continues to get larger with a large raised area under the skin. I have been on antibiotics for the past two weeks and am concerned about the possibility of chronic lyme, chronic ebv since I have sever fatigue and numero9us other symptoms for the past few years....My immediate concern is the bullseye rash with the increase in size of the lump. is it possible the tic is still under my skin?
Hi, Lyme disease is caused by Cordelia infection. The treatment involves taking antibiotics. Please do complete the course of antibiotic as prescribed by your Doctor and follow your doctor.  If the rash still persists, you may need an additional dose of antibiotics as per your Dermatologists advice. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
