Hope you turned the corner on this Rooster.
Thanks, I appreciate it. They're testing me for some other stuff now. The joint pain and fevers just won't go away. They're thinking it's some kind of autoimmune disorder. Won't know more until the blood test comes back but some of the autoimmune disorders can cause the RMSF tests to come back positive too. I need some relief soon because this joint pain is awful.Hope you turned the corner on this Rooster.
Thanks ol bob, how did they treat yours? Just pill doxycycline or were you ever put on a drip of doxycycline? I've been told they'll even use antibody treatments for it in severe cases.Hang in there when I had it I was out of work 3 mo. and didn't get back to full time for a year, but everything did get back to normal.
I wouldn't be surprised if they put me in the hospital too just to get me on an IV. We'll see when I speak to the specialist.I was in ICU 14 days IV every 4 hrs. almost didn't make it. I know thing have changed since I had it, but what they gave me was some bad stuff.
Tick fever get you too or was it covid? I seem to remember something about covid. Glad you're out and moving around!My goodness @RoosterTodd. I had no idea!!! I just got out of the hospital Last Thursday!
No it wasn't tick fever it was Covid. I guess I should've read back some.Tick fever get you too or was it covid? I seem to remember something about covid. Glad you're out and moving around!
I've got a long way to go. I've been under treatment since July 6th and still have it really bad. I'm seeing an infectious disease specialist and a rheumatologist this week.No it wasn't tick fever it was Covid. I guess I should've read back some.

Thanks man! Feeling better every day. Still got a ways to go but way better than I was.@RoosterTodd I am just now seeing this. Want to include my well wishes along with all the ones these great folks have already sent your way.
Get well soon, brother.
Really good to hear. I've heard that stuff can be rough to deal with. And there's probably a lot of people who have it, but may not know exactly what they're dealing with.Thanks man! Feeling better every day. Still got a ways to go but way better than I was.
