Really the best is to check for ticks and weird bruises with a partner every so often.
Got Lyme disease from a tick years ago and it was very visible -> a spreading red bruise with a white middle (it get bigger and looks like it's not healing)
When spotted some antibiotics did their jobs in two weeks if I remember correctly.
I should check the other diseases' visual clues too.
- goda90 3mo agoNot every case of Lyme disease has said bruise, and there's other tick borne diseases that ticks pass to you faster post-bite and are harder to treat than early onset Lyme disease is. The best is to never get bitten at all.
- e40 3mo agoI’ve know people that took a very long time to beat Lyme, through multiple rounds of antibiotics. Avoidance is very much the best path.
