[quote=Anonymous]Alternative point of view here. I'm from CT, home of Lyme disease, and my dad would pick multiple ticks off our golden retriever every single night (except in winter) while watching McNeil-Lehrer Hour. All 4 of us in our family got bitten, bulls-eye rash and all. We all just took Cipro or whatever for a couple of weeks and were totally fine. I know there are some people who say their Lyme has been debilitating, but most everyone I grew up with in woodsy country CT is like my family and we're all fine, tick bites and all. No worries. Watch for the rash; if you get it, head to the doctor for antibiotics. People who get "false negatives" for Lyme don't have Lyme; they have fibromyalgia or something else and are jumping on the bandwagon. [/quote]
