Lymes sucks but it isn't that bad with the medicine they have now. I'm from NJ and it seems like half the population (including myself) has it. She'll be feeling better within a week but you're correct in there's no cure. What will happen is you'll be fine for a year or more and then just get really sick, like the flu, and have to go back to the doctor and get some medicine. In a couple of days you'll be back on your feet again. You do get more achy at times though and you know when you're about to get sick again because you get real tired and lazy. I, like most people, caught it within the first year and there's nothing really to worry about. I think if you let it go for longer than that though is when you get into the more serious cases. Good luck
