PSA, after hiking, do your tick checks thoroughly everyone!! The hospital informed me I have a tickborne illness now, which explains why I’ve been bedridden the past few days lol. I caught it early, so two weeks of antibiotics should eradicate the disease, but the doctor said it might be rough. TickSafetyLinks⬇️

I’m not going to disclose which illness it is publicly for privacy reasons. I just want others to avoid this!! Here are resources on how to avoid, remove, and treat ticks:

I’m 99% sure the place where I got the tick we were literally trudging through tall brush for an hour and a half. It wasn’t a heavily trafficked trail, but enough to be recommended by someone at the hotel. I was even wearing pants but got bit on my leg (in plain sight).

I was honestly really worried hiking that trail about ticks and that was half of what I thought about. Sometimes it really goes to TRUST YOUR GUT when it tells you NOT to do something!! This goes for everything but especially for outdoor adventures!! Here’s a little slug I found :P

OHHH yah that’s a really cool trick please do!!

I am so scared of ticks… they are the worst. Best tipp ever to finally spotting all of them: You can easily spot them (even on your furry friends 🐕) by using the inverted filter on your magnifying glass app. The ticks will be marked as white! 🔍👀 

Can I repost this in /dogs right away?! Every dog owner should know!

Probablg got bit a couple of weeks ago when hiking. I got a rash though signature to a specific common tickborne disease, so I went into the hospital and they told me what it was right away

How did they identify the illness? Did you have a tick bite and feed on you for more than a day?

I have a nsfw tick story do I dare share it on the timeline

Feeling pretty good right now, and thank you

Sorry to hear that, wishing you full recovery

Make sure to stay out of the sun; take it easy if you don’t know your limits. And ofc have fun :) lmk if you have other questions.

Well, first and foremost, do a tick check afterwards haha. Bring snacks, sunscreen, a light daypack to carry water. Make sure someone in the group has a small first aid kit and is trained in it. Stick to the trails and ofc trust your gut and do only what you’re comfortable with.

Gm Newt, perhaps you could share some tips on hiking I have never gone on one before I am trying to attend one next month with a group..

Yeah definitely not fun at all. 
Lot’s of needles for IV + treatment. 
It was def my fault though for not checking sooner - glad you’re spreading the word!

Yah I will be fine soon, but I’m sure that sucked

Oof! I’ve been there before with Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. 

Hope you start feeling better soon!
