In reply to: Chris's Mom 's message, "YIKES!! I just pulled a tick from Chris's underarm!!!...(m)" on 07:47:56 04/16/03 Wed

get them all the time up in Wisconsin...even I've had them on me a couple of times in the past few years. Was it attached to him and was it big like it had been on him for awhile? If it was just crawling on him, he should be fine...from what I understand they actually have to bite and attach to get lyme disease. Sorry if that's gross, but I grew up around them so, while I don't like them at all, I've just learned to deal with them. lol DH freaks out over them, though. heehee And if someone else finds one on themselves, his skin crawls for days. lol But he's the same way with any creepy crawly. ;o)

Good luck at the dr's office!

Donna
