Did you know that up to 45% of Lyme disease patients from endemic areas also have a tick-borne co-infection?

That’s right, one tick bite can transmit multiple infections. Some studies show that ticks carry 5-7 infections on average. While many have invisible or overlapping symptoms, there are also key differences that can actually prevent successful treatment and further debilitate your health. And don’t forget about all the other “sandbox buddies” (see our previous reel).

These co-infections are why a comprehensive evaluation is so important!

Testing and treating Lyme disease and tick-borne co-infections can be challenging. No current test can confirm or rule out a diagnosis of Lyme and co-infections with 100% certainty.

This doesn’t mean testing is pointless, but it’s important to understand that a negative test result does NOT mean you’re free of Lyme.

Happy and Merry Everything gang!
To my Virginia people - yes, I'm wearing two pairs of pants for this Christmas eve run.
To my Canadian peeps - yes, I've become a total cold wussy. In my defense, I run outside when it's 90+ (30+) degrees.
To my Seattle people - I feel right at home in the PNW weather and I'm going to have a hot cup of coffee immediately after my run.
Xoxoxo
