Very interesting. Thanks for posting it.

Also, don't forget the tick-caused "Mammalian Meat Allergy" (which I have had for going on 25 years, although the relationship to ticks was only recently discovered).

What symptoms do you have? How have you dealt with it?

It makes you allergic to red meat. I think the allergy symptoms usually last about 12 months. -hunter's worst nightmare.

It also makes you a terrible shot with a bow and arrow when shooting at a deer.

Mammalian Meat Allergy is an allergy to various forms of red meat and is specifically characterized by the delayed allergic reaction, usually occurring 4-6 hours after ingesting the meat. With each successive reaction, the symptoms usually become more severe.

I dealt with it by avoiding beef for 20 years. And strangely, my symptoms are now virtually gone. I eat beef with regularity, although on very rare occassions I still get mild symptoms (itchy hives). But when I first acquired the allergy, my symptoms were quite severe, including swelling of the airways and difficulty breathing. Interestingly, two of my sisters have aquired the allergy in the last year, both with fairly severe symptoms. Unfortunately, discovery of the condition has been fairly recent, and not much is known about it, other than that it is most prevalent geographically in an east-west stripe of geography running from Virginia and North Carolina, through Tennessee and into Arkansas, a region where one particular species of tick is most common.

If only I could blame that on ticks! ;\)
