Reasons to be cheerful, Part 3 - A few weeks ago, the wife and I went out to a local park to have a walk and take photos. I delved a little too deeply into the foliage and later discovered two ticks happily chomping away on me.

The doctor’s office just called and informed me that my blood screen came back negative for anything, including Lyme. Relieved.

Have another screen done in 2 - 3 months, especially if you feel tired, achy or get any rashes. A first screen, especially this soon after exposure, will almost always miss Lyme’s (had it earlier this year).
