I have a friend with Lyme in Philly. I don't know if they caught it soon enough, because she continues to have problems even after treatment. You'd think this was a fairly simple thing to cure, but it's not.
Lyme Disease, anyone have experience with this?

I forgot to mention that there is a little sucking device "aspivenin" which you place over the bite, and which - while you use it - removes a little blood together with whatever the tick put into the bite wound.
it does'nt hurt while using. (vacuum)A few years ago, Dutch soldiers were sent to the Sahara desert - they all had to take this with them, as a precaution against scorpion bites... it will give you almost immediate relief by itching.

Check yourself when ever you come back from the outdoors and if you have animals that roam the neighborhood a lot, check them too. They often bring them into the house, and your don't even know you were bit, as you never think to check when not in the outdoors.
