Lyme disease is rarely fatal if treated promptly with antibiotics. In some cases, untreated Lyme disease can lead to serious complications affecting the heart, brain, and nervous system, which can potentially be life-threatening. However, with early detection and proper treatment, the majority of people with Lyme disease recover fully.
