Lyme Awareness Month - Fact #24

Lyme Fact #24:  If Lyme disease is not diagnosed and treated promptly, it progresses to a more severe stage and spreads infection to other parts of the body, such as the nervous system and heart. This can result in potentially life-threatening complications, such as meningitis and cardiac arrhythmias. Symptoms of these complications can include high fever, intense headache, stiff neck, decreased consciousness, coma or abnormal heart rhythms.
