I have never gotten a fever from one, but I did have a humongous splitting headache for a few days, when I found the tick toward the back of my ear. You would have thought I would have noticed it being there during hair washings, but no. This time of year is horrible for ticks, especially with all the pines I have.<br />I love your blog btw!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08949520204674371299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6321070.post-70996365570865054522010-04-26T22:36:47.650-06:002010-04-26T22:36:47.650-06:00The question is then whether having tick fever giv...The question is then whether having tick fever gives any immunity, or can you catch it again?Chas S.

I ...I got tick fever in high school: no fun at all. I have no useful advice, but I do have a diverting anecdote. I was once on a river trip on the Middle Fork of the Salmon, just rowing baggage, so I had no passengers. I was the last raft and quite a ways behind the others, and it was a long river day so we were going fast to make miles. As I was rowing along, I noticed two ticks starting to burrow into my armpit. Such a thing can't be ignored, but it was fast rocky water, I couldn't just drift and I didn't want to get any further behind. So while rowing continuous technical Class II, I dug a lighter out of my ammo box, got a twig from my bundle of firewood smouldering, and attempted to burn the ticks out of my armpit in eight-second intervals between rowing. Didn't work too well, and I would have cut quite a figure if anyone had been there to see. If it ever happens to you, just pull the hell over!Peculiarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15849337750990440147noreply@blogger.com
