Question

For Lyme Disease, do you stay in the hospital, or just get treatment and leave?

Answer 1

Depends on when it is caught and how severe.  I was treated at my doctors office with 30 days of antibiotics, but one of my relatives didn't catch it early and spent close to 10 days in the hospital.

Answer 2

most people get antibiotics and take them for several weeks. I know 2 people that got it this year and neither required overnight stays in the hospital. but they felt like c**p for a couple of weeks.  

Answer 3

Depends on how bad you have it. You may have to stay for a night or 2.

Answer 4
