Several years ago the Terv National was in Gettysburg, PA. One day I noticed a big, red, itchy blotch on my side. Never saw a tick on me. Went to a CVS Minute Clinic, Nurse Practitioner said it looked like a tick bite. Gave me 10 days worth of Doxy. As soon as I got home I went to my regular Dr and told him what happened. He gave me a prescription for 30 more days of Doxy and took blood. Sure enough, Lyme. Fortunately after the Doxy my blood tested clean. Not something I want to mess with!

Another one asking about weirdness I'm telling you, someone is cloning them.
OK so it was the same one and I didn't realize it was an old post Maybe it's me and not them. Guess I'm weird after all.
All humans on this planet are unique. Even "identical" twins. So rejoice, God loves you anyway, even if humans might judge. But we rarely have problems with that.

    I'm glad you beat that. Terrible thing Lyme is.

    Interesting chatter about Lyme Disease .. I was not really up on it all that much, so did a little reading and it does appear to be increasing ::

    From the way the "rash" presents itself, you'd think it would be fairly easy to spot unless it's on a part of your body you don't see much of ..

    We've had a case or two of West Nile Virus pop up already around these parts ..

    Our neighbor almost died from Lyme. He looked like a sick walking skeleton. He's pretty good now.

    My friend "accidentally" found a tick on her four year old daughter. She just happened to pat her on the head and noticed a lump. She checked and found a huge tick. It wasn't engorged, just big. Her husband got it off and luckily it wasn't the type that carried Lyme disease. But if she hadn't happened to find it, it would have fed on her daughter and possibly given her Lyme disease. No one would have noticed if she had a rash under her thick hair. Y'all were very lucky!

    Lyme is pretty endemic to the east coast. My son got the classic "bite/rash" as a toddler and I was lucky enough to find it.

    When he developed fibromyalgia (and a few other odd sort of immune disorders endemic to my family and THANK goodness I did not but I guess my Creator was like, "I'm giving you Virulent Bipolar and the ability to get addicted to many things, that's enough.") In any case, I was worried it was Lyme disease (the pediatrician was INSISTENT that augmentin could cure it, I had my doubts) but he tests negative ever time. So, just your odd immune disorder set I guess. He's pretty stable health wise these days, so I'm happy.

    Our first dog would go after ANYTHING in the yard (including rattlesnakes, it took her 3 bites to get the message, LOL) and bunnies and whatever. It was kind of her demise, she was getting elderly and JUMPED off our 3 foot concrete step to get a rabbit, or something, and just went "splat" instead of her usual elegant landing and sprint and chase. I mean, she CHASED, but after the "splat." She was just never the same after that and we had to mostly keep her inside. Eventually it got bad enough she needed to get put down. The odd thing about that dog was she didn't want to EAT anything, she just wanted to play. The first tine she found some rodent, she "played with it" to death, then kept looking over at the husband going, "What happened to my toy?"
    "It's dead, Samantha."

    Took her a while.

    We get coyotes after gopher days like EVERY time. I don't really mind. I like coyotes (I realize this is a somewhat unpopular opinion) and if you ask me, it's better than stepping on a dead gopher. The little dog is smart and hides in his house in his (fenced) yard every time, also.

    LOL.

    There are other diseases... from other ticks that are just as lethal. My Husband's Father died from Rocky Mountain Tick Fever...another result of their family being put into the Japanese internment camps....

    Lyme disease doesn't always present the typical 'bulls eye ring' rash, and the deer ticks that cause it are tiny and not always noticed....

    As I have mentioned (more than once) in the Past .. I have long avoided having what is called "Social Media Presence" .. I like our little corner, right here, of the Cyberverse .. I am pretty much ignorant of all things Facebook (thus, I can't be "Influenced") .. Instagram, Snapchat and whatever Cyber Forum the Teen Cognoscenti have anointed .. I do know that the Pound Sign is a critical element to Twitter, but, I have never personally tried it .. :eek:

    Yet, I don't feel like I'm missing anything .. I don't feel my Life is lesser for it or that I'm somehow being left behind in the New Modern Order of Things (MOOT) .. I feel like ECF and one other Forum I frequent is a perfectly adequate way of expressing myself on a micro-scale .. I like a more intimate setting .. I have friends that have hundreds, if not thousands of "Followers", yet how many of those are actual friends that they have taken the time to get to know .. ?? :(

    Our World currently sends way to many messages .. and, I believe people acquiesce to being barraged .. in fact, they must like it .. at any rate, my mental self-preservation in the Current World, seems to require a degree of digital inaccessibility ..

    or maybe it's just that the only Person I can tolerate in my own Head is already there .. o_O
