A PhD student colleague of mine caught Lyme disease in the Netherlands... while doing his thesis on Lyme prevalence in tick and rodent populations to study the disease dynamics in nature here. A course of antibiotics cleared it up, but he was out of work for at least a month.
I had a friend in primary school (in Virginia) who had Lyme and it wasn't caught early (not sure if it was tested for as easily, back in the 90s). I remember that she was in a wheelchair for a long time due to terrible symptoms and pain. I think it took her years to fully recover.
