Hm. That actually sounds interesting.
I recently had a serious series of bed bugs (and I do not know what other bugs) bite from the really old mattress I had (from the previous tenant) and only after throwing that away and acquired a new one the bed bugs surfaced! (which I delightfully destroyed)

So far I do not have allergy signs but I think I might have some bad rashes coming on and off.

Got to keep the meat aside and detox to see if that helps.

And I am really sorry that you have that problem. I hope your allergy will subside soon. I am banking on that one bite of a tick should not / and will not damn you from enjoying mammal meat forever.
