I got my results back from my blood test. I tested positive for Anaplasmosis and Lyme disease.

I will be starting a month of Doxycycline (antibiotic) today.

Mom & Dad are not surprised that I tested positive because when I was found in Mississippi I had lots of ticks and fleas, I would have been VERY lucky not to have been infected. At least my heartworm test is negative!

Ticks are such nasty creatures! Some of you may remember that Sasha had Ehrlichiosis, but never had any symptoms. Hopefully I have some of Sasha's luck!
