Re: Pagan Spirit Gathering.
Anymore they recommend pulling them out with steady pressure. Scaring them out with heat or chemicals can make them regurgitate what they've pulled out of you plus whatever else is in their stomach increasing the chance of infection. So we pulled them out. All the ones I pulled out were intact. The allergic to meat thing wouldn't bother me so much. Vegetarian. But lyme disease is a little scary.We are what we are. Nothing more, nothing less.

I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.

Re: Pagan Spirit Gathering.
A Tick Bite Could Make You Allergic to Meat—and It's Spreading
Yeah, ticks are way bad this year. Despite taking precautions (spraying shoes, socks, legs, pants) I still pick tics after every walk.
If you show the bulls eye rash of early lyme disease, see the Dr right away. It is easier to deal with in the early stage.
Also, for dogs, tics can cause paralysis. Id goes away when the tic is gone, but if you have a dog, be aware that paralysis is possible, and it can be misdiagnosed as something incurable.Last edited by B. de Corbin; 26 Jun 2017, 01:17.Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

Re: Ticks
I developed Lyme Disease on the Appalachian Trail in 2015. The bulls eye rash doesn't show up in all cases. Mine didn't. I ended up getting sick enough that I hitchiked off the trail to the nearest VA and luckily caught it in time before it could become chronic.
I actually consider the tick to be the most dangerous woodland creature on the East Coast. I know a lot of long distance hikers. I dont know any thats been attacked by a bear. I don't know any that's been bitten by a snake. I don't know any that's been charged by a moose. But I know a shit ton of hikers with Lyme Disease.

Re: Ticks
I'm on the antibiotics now that cover almost everything. So either way, I should be fine. The doc diagnosed me with cellulitis, and while I've heard a lot of awful things, she hasn't seemed that concerned, since we caught it early and I didn't let it go.We are what we are.
