Ode, Your statement below is generally not true. Even if one gets the tick off quickly, as you suggest, the contents of the tick's stomach may have been regurgitated into the bite and the blood and lymph will carry it to all parts of the body, quickly, and then start reproducing or hiding until it is safe to start reproducing. This includes the brain and is known as neurolyme. We have to remember that the general population, unlike you, do not have CS running through their body, nor do most even know what CS is.
The reason I say your statement is generally not true is that, many people do not know how to correctly remove a tick without squeezing it. And if the tick should happen to be infected, then no matter how quickly you got the tick off of the body, the contents of the tick's stomach will have been regurgitated into the bite. Some people are very, very lucky and have immune systems that are strong and healthy, but read below, and you will see that not even that is a guarantee that a future attack from that specific bite will not ever surface. What will matter and make all the difference to a life is the means by which one eliminates or kills off the spirochetes and co-infections delivered into the system through the bite. One may have an excellent immune system which will help eliminate it or not. But why take the chance. This is a life threatening disease which can lay dormant in the body for years for when the immune system is not up to par. These spirochetes are extremely intelligent and know when to begin their attack. They are pleomorphic organisms and also some have been designed by humans for biowarfare. The immune system cannot recognize those designed for biowarfare and so doesn't know that it has been attacked and do not rev up to fight what they don't recognize. ABX is indicated for any tick bite, starting with Doxycycline, at around 400 to 600mg/day, until the person knows for absolute certain that they have not been infected or for taking for a minimum of 4-6 weeks, period. End of story. A bulleseye rash is only one indication. You don't necessarily have to have a bullseye rash to be infected. Many Lyme victims have never had a bullseye rash and they have Lyme Disease. sash From: "Ode Coyote" <odecoy...@windstream.net If you get the tick off pretty quick, there is little chance of any problems. I get tick bit about every 2 weeks and find one looking for a spot every few days. Do the tick search daily if not twice a day. I'd never be OFF ABX if I assumed the worst every time.
