Lyme disease

Question

Lyme disease

Asked for Male, 32 Years

Last year I had a tick so was tested for Lyme. It came back negative but there was some question around whether or not it was conclusive. I've felt lethargic and kind of achey for the past year but chalked it up to getting older. A few weeks ago I found another engorged tick. This time I had it tested by Cutter, a company that tests the tick for the bacteria. The test came back positive for the bacteria. I have an appointment at my PCP next week but should I go to the hospital or urgent care?
