Back in 2017 I lost one of my very very beloved dogs little bear due to rocky mountain spotted fever. I grew up in las vegas exploring the spring mountains and ticks were just not something we saw ever or alot of. One day after a long hike way above the lodge at Mount charlston after coming home I found two ticks on my dog.. I didn't think anything of it removed them like I was taught take the head and that was that. 8 to 9 months later he developed grand maul seizers, brain swelling, stroke, and then into coma all less than 3 to 4 days.. I rushed him to the er vet about 3 times and they ran test after test and couldn't find anything. It was after the fact I learned with rmsf you have to get a specific blood test that unfortunately vets are not familiar with in las vegas because it's just so rare.. that eas the ruffest thing I ever seen any living thing go through ever. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.. I wish ppl spoke more about rocky mountain spotted fever and not Lyme disease. Both are horrible but with rmsf your time is ticking. Literally.
It is with Lyme and other Tick borne illness too. People do die from Lyme disease (see Neil Spector) and not enough are talking about that. But you are correct that there's not one single infection to worry about. I was infected with other more severe illnesses as well and am lucky that I caught it in time
watchful waiting = find a new competent Real Doctor. Competent Real Doctors, who know the truth and care for their patient, treat most all tick bites. How well, for covid, did "watchful waiting" / go home until you can no longer breath then go to the hospital work vs early outpatient treatment? In minnesota ~19% die in the hospital many discharged are never right again. Competent Timely Early Outpatient Treatment for covid = close to zero hospitalization/death/long covid

My god, actual medical education and not political propaganda or drug company propaganda! Keep up the good work.
Great! And thank you. Greetings from Col .
Makes you wonder if tick saliva could be used to make a blood thinner and/or an NSAID.
