Not sure if I’ve written about this before but I now firmly believe I was bitten by a tick, probably 20 years ago.
Knowing what I know now about them, I think the (as described by my doctor) “unidentified insect bite” on my leg which had swollen up into a massive, red hot, itchy, bullseye lump, complete with 3 incisor marks was an infected tick bite.
I do wonder sometimes if that is the reason I wake up with random aches and pains for no reason. Nowadays I can blame it on my age mindst, but back then…..
