[alfreda89]

But weren't the IDSA guidelines shown to be biased and written by people directly benefiting from those guidelines? Mais, oui, my friends. Here's the latest victim, Dr. Ron Wilson:

It's not relevant to Texas.

My husband received a tentative diagnosis of lyme infection today.

They started immediate treatment.

It's one week from exposure. Full recovery is expected.

It's pretty much directly because of you that we checked for-- and found-- the bites after seeing deer where we were walking Labor Day.

Thought you'd want to know.

Yes!

Catch it early! And if there's the slightest chance that he needs a second round of antibiotics, ask for it. If they balk, point out that they're writing scripts for months of antibiotics for acne -- another 10 days of doxycycline is not asking for a lot.

I hope everything goes smoothly for you both -- which it should.

For we three--

Once home, Best Beloved called the Summer Child's mother and asked her to do a physical check-over on her, since she was with us on Labor Day.

There is a suspicious bite on her shoulder.
She is being taken to a doctor today.

Thank you.

Thank you for taking the risks so seriously.

May all be well.
