Well I just got back from the doctor and it is official, i have Lyme disease. This really sucks big time. It is not that I am totally useless now but I constantly feel run down and my joints are so sore. Guys please check yourselves everytime you get out and get home from the woods. Continue this even into the cold weather. You'd be surprised at how many ticks are still around in Nov. December. My old neighbor used to do reasearch on ticks and Lyme disease here in NJ and he has showed me the ticks he's found late in the year. A few warning symptoms to look out for are the obvious bullseye bite mark, aching joints, a low fever, nausea/upset stomach, and feeling rundown day after day. Well I'm going to try and push through this the best i can and get out as much as possible when I don't feel like total crap. Im not gonna let this little bug keep me out of the woods this season. Again be careful and always do a scan of ur body when you get home.
