title: Lyme disease in the highlands.
abstract: Serological results for Borrelia burgdorferi were examined for one year. The results suggest a 'pocket' of infection in one Highland general practice. In this practice, most of the patients had exposure to tick bites and rashes were frequent. There were difficulties in relating serological results to clinical features and management of some patients.
