  1. Ehrlichiosis in Humans:

    • Ehrlichiosis is a tick-borne illness that can affect humans. The symptoms of ehrlichiosis can range from mild to severe and may include fever, headache, fatigue, muscle aches, and in some cases, gastrointestinal symptoms.
  2. Ehrlichia chaffeensis:

    • Ehrlichia chaffeensis is the primary species responsible for human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME). This form of ehrlichiosis primarily affects monocytes (a type of white blood cell). Severe cases can lead to complications such as pneumonia, respiratory failure, and central nervous system involvement.
  3. Ehrlichia ewingii:

    • Ehrlichia ewingii is associated with human granulocytic ehrlichiosis (HGE). This form of ehrlichiosis primarily affects granulocytes (another type of white blood cell). The symptoms are similar to those of HME and can include fever, headache, muscle aches, and fatigue.
  4. Transmission:

    • Ehrlichia species are primarily transmitted to humans through the bite of infected lone star ticks (Amblyomma americanum) and other tick species. Ticks acquire the bacteria by feeding on infected animals, such as deer or rodents.
  5. Geographic Distribution:

    • The geographic distribution of ehrlichiosis is influenced by the distribution of the tick vectors. Ehrlichiosis cases have been reported in various regions of the United States and other parts of the world where the relevant tick species are present.
  6. Diagnosis and Treatment:

    • Diagnosis of ehrlichiosis is typically based on clinical symptoms, tick exposure, and laboratory tests such as blood tests to detect the presence of the bacteria. Treatment involves the use of antibiotics, such as doxycycline.
  7. Prevention:

    • Prevention measures include avoiding tick bites by using repellents, wearing protective clothing, and conducting thorough tick checks after spending time in tick-infested areas.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
