Update: it’s a female African dog tick. It’s currently under testing. Unfortunately I forgot about memorial weekend do lab was closed until today.
Will update once I receive results
-
thank you! I will do the same.
-
what symptoms? He only had some diarrhea in the morning that vomiting twice two days ago but not sure if that’s viral or related to tick.
-
I went with tickcheck.com
Good to know about the remedy. I will keep that in mind for future. Thank you. Is one dose of that sufficient? And for how many days should it I give it?

update:
I mailed the tick to be tested. The results should come out by early afternoon tomorrow. Will keep you posted.I took my son to urgent care to be assessed. The dr. Wrote a prescription for doxycline ( if it’s Rocky Mountain) or amoxicillin ( if it’s Lyme). He said to wait until the results come in. ( I’ve attached prescription for your reference).
He had diarrhea this morning ( sorry I’ve also attached images of this). Dr thinks is viral and unrelated but still said small
Chance it could be related to tick if it’s Rocky Mountain spotted fever. I took tick to drs office before mailing it and he said it looks like a wood tick not a deer tick.I only had ledum 200 so I gave my son 1 pellet thus far undiluted. Should I stick to one 1 a day since it’s higher dosage? Also was I right for not diluting it and just giving him one to crunch in his mouth?

I don’t have Ledum but I’ll try to find out who has it today and you said give him 2 pellets 3-4 times a day. Do i dissolve these in water or just give to him?

Thank you for all the information. It’s greatly appreciated

I am planning to send tick to get tested today. I also plan on taking my son to urgent care or the ER as We just moved from dubai less than a year ago and don’t have a primary dr. Should he start on antibiotics as a precautionary thing awaiting tick results. That may take a few days and I don’t want the effectiveness of antibiotics to go. They said after tick removal within 72 hours

I’m in Wisconsin. Brookfield Wisconsin. Due to time difference I just saw this and had put baggy wiyh tick in freezer. Hope that’s ok.

i usually add this in my protein shake for added nutritional benefit. It’s called life greens. It doesn’t upset my stomach. I had purchased this months ago and finished it and wanted to run ingredients by you before I purchase another one.

she had a leak in the valve that’s why it was replaced. She’s not really on any major pain meds. She only takes Tylenol for pain. She’s on blood thinners ( warfarin), aspirin blood pressure medication (pravastatin), ace inhibitor ( pantoprazole), and a water pill for her heart failure ( furosemide).

wow thank you so much for the detailed response. I really appreciate it! Will try to unpack this. Again thank you!

thank you

Just got back from the ER because he was in agony and kept vomiting. They said he had a stomach virus it seems. He has no fever. They just prescribed zofran an anti nausea… I didn’t give it to him because he went to sleep and hasn’t woken up ( go figure he fell asleep right when we got to ER) . Also it has so many side effects. It would be my last resort if nothing else was working for him.
