    Minnesota health officials warn of fatal tick bites.

    Hello everyone. please read a share this article with family and friends. I was diagnosed last fall with this type of Lyme's. When the symptoms are diagnosed early, there is hope. I encourage everyone to learn as much as possible about Lyme's symptoms, myths and take all available precautions.

    Good article. I always wear clothes treated with Permethrin. I have had Lyme three times in the past and Ehrlichiosis once. Not one tick since wearing treated clothing but I still do tick checks after being out in the woods.

    Just for information it is not LYME'S but correct spelling is LYME. The article in the link spelled it correctly.

    Lyme is a horrible disease. I got it 2 years agoand it's symptoms still impact me every day. I'm only 22 and I have very bad fatigue, joint pain, and frequent migraines. If I stick to a healthy low sugar, dairy free diet the symptoms seem to lessen

    Permethrin is the way to go - although last time on the farm I sprayed and still ended up with 3 attached to me. 2 Dog, and 1 deer tick.

    Hate em...5 weeks later, still itching.

    4 years ago I got Anaplasmosis from a tick bite. Stupid doctor wouldn't order me a tick panel test. Changed doctors and the panel confirmed I had Anaplasmosis.

    Do whatever you can. They seem to be getting worse and worse every year...
