It didn't repel ticks but it cured any tick that bit you that was carrying the Lyme virus.

Pheizer somd a lot of antibiotics.

Also, a patient cured is a patient lost.

You ain't kiddin!

Its insane to think of what could be cured if it were not for the almighty buck.

Got myself some permethrin today and soaked a set of work cloths and set of grass cutting/fishing cloths.Between that and picaradin for the skin I'll be damned if I ever get another tick or mosquito on me.I won't go through this again hopefully.

Perpetual war would be a nice thing to cure.

Unfortunately there will never be a cure for the human condition other than extinction.We are our own best enemy.

Disease we all can work on and at least make life better in the here and now.

A good friend has been diagnosed with lyme. He has known something was wrong for a while before docs said he has lyme. He is on meds now but has said he gets a feeling like he has a sunburn on his face and neck also tinitus in ears. Anyone else have these symptoms?

I can't say much about the tinitus part as I had before I got lyme.

Has your friend been out in the sun?Doxycycline can make you very sensitive to the sun according to my doc.

I will ask him

Sun and doxycycline only affects some people but the only way you know is to try.
It didn’t affect me

Happened to my son when he was on doxy for something else. Top layer of skin peeled off his sunburned hands.

Yes and yes.

I had them when on the Doxy as any form of prolonged light exposure can really do a number on you. I kept boat fishing while on a full course. Stupid.

I still get those symptoms as, like I stated in my post above, I had/have post Lyme syndrome.
