I thought a quick hot shower would be relaxing b4 bed. After drying off & picking up the laundry, I found a tick crawling on the towel! It fell and began crawling again. Ickk! I feel so creepy now...
I'm sure it got on me from Buddy - he climbs onto my chest for his nightly snooze while-being-brushed. I've got the tick in a plastic bag now. Since it wasn't stuck in me or Buddy, can I assume everything is okay?
I know more than one person dealing w/ advanced Lyme disease and they never knew they got bit! So I'm real upset & can't sleep. Dh thinks I'll be ok but that I should call the dr. Buddy had his 1st dose of the flea/tick meds a couple weeks ago, should I call the vet too? Anyone BTDT or have words of wisdom? Thanks much. I know I'm probably over-reacting, but I HATE things crawling on me
& I'm sleep-deprived
plus I'm concerned about Buddy and my dc.
