Is Lymes Disease Curable?
My son s father had a tick on his head last September and it wasnt found immediately and because of it he hasn t been to work now for 5 months. He has hot sweats and nausea. I believe it is Lymes Disease. Will the symptoms ever go away with treatment, or will he have the disease forever?
