[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Overuse of antibiotics are effecting us all. We are close to entering into a post-antibiotic world simply because we are overusing antibiotics both on ourselves and in the farm industry. For Pete's sake, stop being so self-centered people. Do not take antibiotics prophylactically. A mere tick bite does not warrant drugs "just in case". Btw, OP, the tick you described is most likely a dog tick.[/quote] You probably don't know anyone with severe Lyme. I know close to a dozen people with it and it's worth the antibiotic risk. I am the person who does everything to avoid antibiotics unless it's an emergency and I would take them as a precaution to avoid Lyme. That said, I agree that what OP described does not sound like a deer tic.[/quote]
