Haven't ridden in a while (Tick bite)...

I haven't disappeared... But ever since Sep 10th, I have been under the weather from being bitten by a tick somehow. I originally was thinking of getting on my beloved '85 Fuji road bike and ride, but, I opted to go running instead, and look what happened to me.

It's a long-winded post (sorry), but feel free to read about it here:

Thanks.... We'll see on Tuesday what the main Doc says. They'll probably jab me again for more blood work and maybe switch meds. I don't know.

But yeah, getting bitten by a tick is NOT fun!!!
