What to do now

The calendar matters more than people think

Lyme tests look for antibodies, and your body takes weeks to make them. Test too soon and a negative can be wrong, so we plan your test around your bite.

Day 0
The bite
Remove the tick, photograph it and log where you were. No test yet.
Weeks 1 to 4
Watch for a rash
A spreading red rash means book a doctor's visit. It can be diagnosed on sight.
From week 4
Your home test works best
If symptoms appear, an antibody test is more likely to give a true answer now.
Week 12 and on
Still unwell?
A doctor can review a confirmatory result or look for other causes.

Questions people ask

Should I get tested straight after a tick bite?

No. Antibodies take weeks to appear, so a test now isn't useful. Remove the tick, log the bite and watch for a rash or new symptoms over the next few weeks. The free watch plan in the Lyma app reminds you.

Do I need a test if I have a rash?

A red rash spreading out from a bite can usually be diagnosed by a doctor on sight, so you don't need a test first. Book a doctor's visit.

How does the home test work?

Order your kit, then take a 2-minute health check. A clinician reviews it within one working day, then your kit is posted. You collect a small sample from your upper arm with the Tasso+ device and post it to ArminLabs, an accredited lab in Germany. Your result arrives in the Lyma app with a clinician note.

What if the clinician says a test isn't right for me yet?

If it's too early for a test to give a true answer, we hold your kit and post it when testing becomes useful. If the clinician thinks you need to see a doctor instead, [REFUND OR CREDIT WORDING, decision W-D2]. Either way you'll hear from us before anything is posted.

Is a home sample as reliable as a clinic draw?

[CLINICAL LEAD TO CONFIRM: wording on Tasso+ capillary samples and the lab's validation.]

Will my own GP accept the results?

Your result comes from an accredited lab with a note from the reviewing clinician. You can share it with your own GP from the app, for as long as you choose.
