Should we assume that you are taking high dose antibiotics? You are fortunate to test positive so close to developing symptoms, it took me six weeks before my western blot came back positive. My initial symptoms were flu like with high fever, chills and night sweats, I also had blood in my urine from what I now believe was the co-infection babesia. My fever, chills and night sweats resolved after two weeks on Cipro. I was initially mis-diagnosed with diverticulitis and later found out from my GI doctor that I don't have it. Four weeks later I was hospitalized for a week, my lyme test came back positive while I was in the hospital and they switched my IV-Meds over to Doxycyline. You will want to see a LLMD (Lyme Literate Medical Doctor) and stay on top of it. Hope that you see some improvement soon.
