Late Sunday night I found out the scab on my back was actually a tick. Not knowing it was a tick on my back I just pulled it off… only to find out it had a body and legs. Not exactly scab material, eh? The next day it occurred to me it could be a tick, so I searched the net on info on those little critters. BINGO. The part of possible infection with Lyme disease had a slightly uncomfortable. A friend of mine recommended a trip to the doctor’s just to be on the safe side.
I went earlier today, and the doctor did remove the last of the tick. He told me to keep an eye on it for the next several weeks for possible symptoms of Lyme disease.
