Host Vanessa Pilon just revealed to her Instagram followers that she has Lyme disease. “I feel terrible,” she wrote.
“Loves. The tick gave me Lyme disease,” the personality wrote in a fleeting Instagram post.
Her photo shows her looking into the camera lens with a serious expression on her face.
“This disease is no joke. Be very careful, scan yourself everywhere in the evening. At the nymph stage they can be very small,” she advises.
“The one that stung me was the size of a needle head,” says little Claire’s mother.

Lyme disease
Signs and symptoms of Lyme disease vary from person to person after being bitten by an infected blacklegged tick (deer tick) or western blacklegged tick.
The disease occurs in stages, the manifestations of which may overlap. In some patients, it may appear immediately at a late stage, without any warning signs.
