I needed this reminder today. I hope someone else out there did too 💚

We were given our hardships to make us stronger. And us chronic illness people are STRONG!

TIME TO TALK.

I've finally decided that I want to share every part of my Lyme journey. In hopes to help other sufferers out there and bring awareness to this crippling disease. It's currently 3am here and I've had an absolutely awful night so I plan to start writing tomorrow. Until then.... Kelly 💚

Today all I could do was sleep, since I didn't fall asleep until 4:30am last night. I'll officially start my Lyme story from the beginning this weekend.

Reposted from @dr.frecklesctg - Muchos de ustedes ven a la GARRAPATA como un bichito que no es de mucha importancia, que las verán con asco y solo pensaran que le generará rasquiña y alergia a nuestras mascotas... Qué “le coloco la pipeta y ya se acabo el problema”..... La verdad es que NO NO Y NO‼️ Los ectoparasitos en general ( pulgas, piojos, mosquitos y garrapatas) suelen ser vectores transmisores de enfermedades..... . En este caso en especifico hablamos que la GARRAPATA es transmisor de un parasito llamado ERLICHIA CANIS, productor de la enfermedad ERLICHIOSIS CANINA. . Cuando esta garrapatica (infectada) pica al perro va a inocular en la sangre ERLICHIA. . Este parasito afecta directamente a las células sanguíneas como macrofagos y plaquetas produciendo: ⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️ ⚠️Decaimiento ⚠️Anorexia ....... ⚠️Fiebre ⚠️Aumento del tamaño del bazo ⚠️Dolor articular ⚠️Aumento en el tamaño de los linfonódulos ⚠️Bajo nivel de plaquetas en sangre (Trombocitopenia) ⚠️Anemia ⚠️Hemorragias ⚠️Alteración en la coagulación ...... ⚠️En casos graves, MUERTE💀 . La enfermedad tiene tratamiento y el pronóstico va a depender de cuán severa fue la sintomatologia. . La erlichia se confirma con un estudio en sangre que se realiza ante sospecha clínica. . NO OLVIDES DE REALIZARLE EL TEST A TU MASCOTA. . Sígueme para mas tips e información que es de suma importancia para tus mascotas. .

Jakers is a mellow yellow with a giant heart 💗 This sweet boy had his heartworm/tick test and tested positive for Erlichiosis a tick borne disease. At our vet visit last weekend. He has had more pain and this may be partly why. He also has gained some "winter" fluffy weight. So we have switched his food to Science Diet prescription metabolic mobility to help him lose it a little quicker. He is being treated with antibiotics and hopefully with a little weightloss he will feel better 😊 #seniorgermanshepherdmix #germanshepherds #GSD #sweetheartface #seniordogs #whisperingwillowsseniordogsanctuary #whereloveiswhisperedtothelastbreath #rescuedandloved #erlichia #tickdisease #savedfromeuthanasia #weightgain #lifeisbetterwitholdfriends #greymuzzle (at Whispering Willows Senior Dog Sanctuary, Inc.)
