Ticks

Everyone who knows me, knows that I am terrified of ticks! Not only do I obsess endlessly about them but I am ashamed to admit that I have even dreamed about them. It comes as no surprise that I let down my guard for a split second and a tick took the advantage to bite and infect me with Lyme disease. I knew from reading that Lyme disease was painful and an awful infliction but NEVER in my wildest dreams imagined it felt as horrible as this. To make it even worse, I had an allergic reaction to the first antibiotic they put me on and spent an hour and a half with my head in the sink and toilet. Going off topic just a little, I have never understood why people throw up in the toilet. When I am feeling sick to my stomach and feel sensitive to sights and smells, the last place I want my face is in a dirty toilet. The same place that people dispose of their bodily wastes. Anyhoo, I am on a new medicine and aside from fatigue and some leg aches, I am recovering.
