This is just the abstract. Have to pay to read full text, but someone in the state should try to hit a medical library and get it.

Now don't do all know Lyme can't exist in Indiana. I saw signs that said no ticks allowed at the state border. They have the same signs in Michigan. The ticks know better. At least the ISDA claims. Posted by CherylSue (Member # 13077) on :
Lyme and its cousins are everywhere. My LLMD says cardinals spread it. Birds and rodents spread it. Just accept that there's a risk and protect yourself with insect repellent, clothing, etc.

This hits home. Relatives out in Ind. just don"t grasp the Lyme epidmec.
I do have two sons out that way and they are educated on Lyme. They are aware of the life threatening disease.

Cherylsue, interesting commit from your LLMD on cardinals. Do you have anymore info on why your doc says this?
I'm a cardinal bird lover. I've been feeding them their favorite seed, attracting them to my feeder big time.

I'm in the northeast corner on Indiana and gasp, have had Lyme since I was 9, or 16 years and lived in the same place since I was 5.
Oh wait, I live in Indiana, so I'm really just crazy like the doctors keep telling me. >__>

So Melanie beat me to it? Good for her, she is always coming up with good stuff. I didn't realize it was already on lymenet. However, sometimes these double postings catch people who missed it the first time around. OK?
