Interestingly my doctor once recommended against getting tested for Lyme for the opposite reason—false positives. He said he felt a false positive often did enough harm that it wasn’t worth the risk. I told him I respected his Hippocratic oath on these matters, and he seemed appreciative.

Did you take antibiotics afterwards/did your doctor recommend them to you?
