The real reason I adopted Rufus (right) was to get some help in satisfying Periwinkle's (left) endless need for cuddles.
- Search for more ticks. Places like behind the knees, bellybutton, armpits, and groin are favorite tick spots. Check everywhere on your body, including your scalp. Have someone check hard to see places for you, like your back.
- Make sure that the head of the tick is not still embedded in your ear. Have someone check for you.
- Try to identify the type of tick. Different ticks carry different diseases so knowing the type of tick can help you keep watch for symptoms and/or inform doctors if symptoms do develop. Lyme disease is the big one transmitted via ticks but it is not the only one.
- The fact that it wasn’t full of blood is a good sign. Breathe. You are going to be just fine. Know what symptoms to look for and try to not worry yourself.
I know I may be in the minority, but I've decided to not delete anything from my account. None of my posts or comments have a massive amount of karma and Reddit was really the only social media that I actively participated in. Call me sentimental or stupid but I don't want that record to completely go away.
