I personally would be on a IV Benadryl drip combined with periodic injections of EpiPen while munching on a rack of ribs.

I used to post some of my cooks on a RV site I frequent. A guy on that site responded one time by saying he had that from a tick bite in South Carolina, and seeing the pictures were killing him inside. I only post my cooks here now. RAY

I thought Lyme's was a pain in my .... flank. Diagnosed it early and antibiotics cleared it in 3 weeks.
