Don't ask me why, but I came across this article, so I thought I would share, hope that it's of some use to someone. Take care.
TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM LYME DISEASE, wear long sleeves and pants, whenever hiking, or walking in the woods or tall grasses, even in warm weather. Search your body carefully after walking to uncover ticks, who can be quite minute. Symptoms of Lyme disease include, feeling flu like and deep joint and muscle pain. If you notice a crimson circle or bullseye
on your skin, seek medical help immediately. The bullseye is the tick's telltale sign of a bite. Lyme
disease affects each individual differently, with some requiring no more than a cycle of antibiotics, while others require hospitalization. Unfortunately, Lyme
disease symptoms, mirrors those of other ailments, and can, therefore, be misdiagnosed. Try to educate yourself about it, as much as possible, because its impact is lifelong and far reaching. People's careers and lives have been derailed, as a result of Lyme infection. Protecting yourself from Lyme's dreaded consequences is your best option.
