Lyme Disease

I do not post much but thougt this is a good warning. I am sure others have had or have it

I got the call last friday from the Doc. , test came back positive. I believe I got it diognosed early and lots of antibiotics
I thought I had one of my kids colds and them I thought it was cause I quit smoking a few weeks back but when a rash ( no bulls eye, like pison ivey without the blistering) broke out from my neck to my feet I knew it was time to get it checked out. This rash would hit and then a few hours later go away and them come back.
The Doc. told me that there are more cases this year than others and that the rash is not the bulls eye most normaly seen in other cases.
I called a buddy of mine in Harwich and told him and he said I was the 5th person he knows of within the past two weeks to come down with it....
So - If you feel like crap and have a rash or not , get tested. Use bug spray (DEET) and check youselves and your kids.....have fun checking your spouse...
