I am a 27 year old male living in
San Jose. When I was 3 I was bit on the forehead by a tick and it wasn't found for a little while, but my mother noticed it and removed it. I now have a large scar where i was bit because for some reason my skin kept eating away days after the bite. I had no symptoms until 2 years ago when i was bit by another tick. I got finger joint swelling and pain, asthma, and night sweats right away.
