Lyme in the coconut!

Recommended Posts

My dad's a doc and he said lyme disease can lie dormant for quite a while. A woman he knows had no idea she had it and it appeared about two years later as severe arthritis in her joints!!!! She was basically unable to walk etc. until she took strong doses of anti-biotics......Sounded like the kind of thing that would limit ones climbin career! Lots of good advice on this site....he said to watch for trouble at the bite area: As someone mentioned they have to be on ya for a while (12 hours?....) Treatment is pretty easy with lots of antibiotics..untreated it's bad ju-ju!
