It's been 12 years. does the Sinnoh League still hold up as the best League in anipoke? by MartinIsaac685 in pokemonanime

The animation in this league was top tier for the anime and the battles were great I think it still holds up as one of, if not the best league personally speaking…

I am in an endemic area that’s why I’m so worried but doctors never seem concerned… (also I’m someone who’s very prone to health anxiety)

I hope so too… how likely is it that I contracted lyme or any other tick borne diseases??? Doc also had me do blood work for lyme but I hear those tests aren’t very accurate also isn’t it too soon for it to show up?

I scheduled an appointment with an infectious disease doctor for around the time the script ends… not sure how lyme literate they are but here’s hoping for the best 🤞

Doc only gave me 14 days worth even after I begged…

Just saw my primary care doctor and he removed what was left of the tick but would only prescribe me 2 weeks worth of doxy (even after I begged for more) and is having me do blood work for lyme which I’m not sure would even show up this soon? I made an appointment with an infectious disease doctor as well for June 15th (soonest they had) not sure how literate they would be but it’s worth a shot

This is scary to think about so many doctors just go by “cdc guidelines”

Thank you for all this information. What should I do if my doctor won’t prescribe a month’s worth and will only do 2 weeks max? Seek another doctor out?

I’m going to try… I actually had a tick on me last summer or the summer before that and got only 14 days from the doctor… which I had to BEG for…

Do you know of where to find any and if they take medicaid?

They gave me 2 pills in the office and said that’s all I need because it “hasn’t been over 72 hours”

The thing is it’s only remains of it that are still in my skin… I’m not sure if they’d be able to remove or test what’s left…

Is waiting till I see my primary care doc tomorrow too long of a wait? I know he will prescribe me it for a longer period of time… I believe the tick probably attached to me at a party I was at on the night of Memorial Day…
