I work outside all day everyday (excluding some weekends) in the woods swamp you name it. I have found alot of ticks on me from job to job some are worse than others amount of ticks that is. Have not yet had lime disease sorry to here about your case and hope you get better.

I had it (Lyme - named after the town in which it was first diagnosed - Lyme, Connecticut) earlier this year. I diagnosed myself and persuaded my dermatologist to give me Doxycycline. After a week I could walk with minimal pain in my knees. All is well now. I had been treated in the 1990s and know it's nothing to flirt with by putting off treatment. Since my bites were in my scalp, only the edge of the rash was visible (on the side of my face and neck).
