[at-l] ticks
Thanks to everyone who sent great information about my post about the ticks.
No, the person at the clinic (I never even saw a doctor) didn't take any
blood. When I asked about what kind of tick it was, they looked at me like
I was crazy (it was in the city, after all). The size of the tick they
removed leads me to believe that it wasn't a deer tick, and therefore
wouldn't be carrying the Lyme. I'm still nervous though, and did some
calling around today to find a "real" doctor. Unfortunately, "real" doctors
prescribe "real" medicine and run up bills that are way beyond my reach.
Being without health insurance in this world is a very scary thing. But, I
am looking into it (are you kidding...you all put the fear of God into
me!!). I'll keep you posted,
