Creative medical care: a short story

A couple years ago I had an urgent medical need and I went to an urgent care. Actually I'd been bit by a tick in my backyard and I have Lyme disease. Although I don't even think I got Lyme disease from a tick but that's a whole other story. Still it alarmed me and it was attached to me in my groin area. I needed someone to remove it and Paul was in the UK. So I went to an urgent care and I was nervous because I also wanted very hard-hitting antibiotics because I do have the pathogens associated with Lyme disease and I wanted to make sure to kick out whatever this particular tick was carrying. I was nervous because in Arkansas there are virtually no doctors that treat Lyme disease and there is a statewide denial that Lyme disease exists at all.
