Do mosquitoes carry lyme disease?
I've looked in so many different places and every answer is different.
i got a mosquito bite and it got very large and very very itchy. the bump went down and it now looks like a bruise, i read that some lyme disease rashes look like bruises. Should i worry? or do mosquitos not carry it?

I was diagnosed with lyme disease after a year of testing. Doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. I finally went to an alternative doctor who looked at my blood cells under a microsope and then he told me I had lyme. I never saw a tick bite or rash. He told me mosquitos carry lyme and that 75 percnet of testing for lyme in inacurrate. If you start getting symptoms keep searching and pushing the doc's to find out whats wrong.
