Living with a tick-borne illness can be an isolating journey, and but there are many digital havens where individuals find solace, understanding, and shared experiences.
Everyone knows about Lyme disease, but much less known are other tickborne diseases - such as ehrlichiosis, rickettsiosis (aka Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever or Spotted Fever Group), and Alpha-gal Syndrome. This lack of awareness and attention is an equity issue.
Accessing the right healthcare is a critical aspect of managing tick-borne diseases effectively. Knowing more about healthcare professionals specializing in tick-borne illnesses, treatment options, and the importance of an individualized approach.
In the world of combating tick-borne diseases, knowledge serves as the most potent weapon. Many organizations are at the forefront of tick-borne disease research, education, and patient advocacy, including our sister non-profit TBC United.
