Note on a calendar when you pull the tick off so you can be sure when it
was, should you develop symptoms. I was overly tired one summer and my
husband made me go to the internist. She discovered my blood work was
indicative of erlichiosis, from a tick bite a couple weeks before. Most
of the tick-borne diseases are treated with the same cheap antibiotic.
Can't recall which one it is (doxycyline/tetracycline or erythromycin,
maybe?). But that fixed my fatigue. So if you have any symptoms after
a tick bite, seek medical help.
