This is wacky but I seem to be getting completely attacked by mosquitos. In just a few days of being on the patio for a little while w/ my kids, I've gotten something like 50 mosquito bites. I am taking Biaxin and Malarone for Lyme and Babs. Am I crazy? or could either make me more attractive to mosquitos?

I'm going to find some herbal repellent, but still...

have no idea; do you use DEET?

avon's SKIN SO SOFT helps keep them away..good luck.

are you wearing PERFUME? that attracts them..

Yikes- you sound like me in normal life*)!*)!!

I don't know why but some of us just have that buggy love hormone or soemthing!!!! If we go camping my husband gets one mosquito bite while I'm devoured!!!!

I hope since it is new with you that it goes away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe just a honrmonal flare- never heard of it associated with abx use!!!
