Lantus is a long-acting insulin that may look like a rapid- or short-acting insulin. For example, Lantus and Apidra (a rapid-acting insulin) are both clear medicines in elongated vials (or insulin pens) that look similar. To make them look different, put a rubber band around one type of insulin.
Lyme disease symptoms can appear quickly or gradually over time, and they are incredibly varied and can wax and wane. The first physical signs of Lyme infection are often flu-like symptoms â sore throat, headaches, congestion, stiffness, etc. â so many people, including doctors, dismiss the symptoms as the flu or the common cold. During its nymph stage, a tick is only about the size of a period on a sentence.
The first symptom of Lyme disease in most people is an expanding red skin rash (called erythema migrans or an EM rash). In about a third of people, the rash looks like a bull's-eye, with a pale center area surrounded by a bright red rim. The rash is often accompanied by flu-like symptoms, including: 1  Fatigue (the most common symptom). 2  Headache and stiff neck. 3  Fever (which may be high in children, but this is rare). 4  Muscle and joint pain.
