the body was still brown, and was small, years back I took one of my pup and it was very big and grey, it had to have been on the dog a while and feeding a while for it to be so big. This one may have been on me for a few hours IDK, I'm thinking that only because it's color was still brown. My Dr. will only tell me to come in, that's a 40 min. drive. I am going out, I was planning on asking the pharmacist at my CVS Pharmacy. 5 years ago I had a big one on my back shoulder, could not reach it, had no one to remove it, so off to the Dr. for tick removal, I had medical insurance, they charged $200.00 lol to remove the tick and gave me no antibiotic. I don't remember if it hurt later after it was removed. Thanks for the info.
