Ok I was just sitting here minding my own and my shoulder had a pain in it so I rubbed it and low and behold a TICK was barried in my skin.

I had my nephew pull it out and when he touched the area it felt swollen and sore. Now I have a throbbing pain in my shoulder and I don't know why? is this normal????

I have been dx now for 2 years and I am on abx. I put Neosporin on the area and I am just nervous it is red hot and swollen. can I get this wonderfull disease on top of having it already?

Thanks for helping.
Annette

You could get more organisms into your system or more likely possibly get different coinfections. You should talk with your LLMD if you see any changes in your symptom presentation or before.

Hey WOW.........See my post on "I think I'm in trouble now"......this day is just getting too freaky for me.......but in answer to your question perhaps WE can have it on top of having it already!
