Although most tick bites do not result in Lyme disease, the disease is serious enough that you should know how to recognize the symptoms.

  • It may help not to sleep with your fury mamalian pets. Pets have a tendency to carry ticks and other unsavory critters, but they are still much better than politicans and lawyers.

  • Is this MTV cribs or lyme disease video.. Shit is real, you aint gonna hear no gutair in the backround later, unlike HIV this is real.

  • @ALLINKNOTS you probably do not have hepatitus just a darn huge liver load.

  • Yeah, I HAD all those symptoms and the doctors said I had a mental disorder. Now I have CLD. This video is about half bullshit in my opinion. Who put it out, the CDC?IDSA?

  • I can safely say that I didn't "NEED" that tick bite or those symptomst! This video is dramatically oversimplified and badly writen. Why in the world would they make it sound as thought Lyme disease is some sort of easy project anyone can accomplish?

  • What idiot made this video?

  • So far, antibiotics only help if taken soon after infection. If the infection, which is a cousin to syphilis (a spirocete), has been there for a while, it goes "underground" and spreads and antibiotics don't appear to help. The spirocetes protect themselves with a little "capsule" when they are dormant and may not show up on tests like the Western blot, depending on what part of the cycle they are in. Immediate treatment is best.

  • I wish it was that easy,.
