Deer and a typical oval Lyme rash.

When we first moved here I saw lots of deer in my back yard.... I thought they were beautiful!! I enjoyed looking out the window and seeing them walk, eat and relax... I knew little about Lyme Disease until I developed a rash on my chest similar to the rash below.. The rash was oval and gradually expanded. It didn't itch. Went to my doctor and he said in his professional opinion the rash did not appear to be Lyme... He sent me home with a lotion... As a result the rash expanded across my chest and then I developed 2 more typical rounded rashes on my legs...The bacteria had started to spread... GET treatment ASAP if you see an OVAL rash like this.... THIS rash is indicative of LYME DISEASE and requires immediate treatment...
