Hi,

The rash can be due to Lyme's but the bleeding and other symptoms needs work up preferably with complete blood count, coagulation profile, as well as inflammatory markers. Also possibility of systemic vasculitis should be ruled out. I suggest you to have a detailed review with an infectious diseases specialist as issues are graver than to be ignored as such without proper work up.

Wishing you a speedy recovery. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
