Rov qab rau xyoo 2015, tus kab mob Lyme pib tshwm sim - qhov kev pheej hmoo ntawm tus kab mob tau nce siab los ntawm 320 feem pua ​​​​ntawm 20 xyoo, raws li Lub Chaw Tiv Thaiv Kab Mob thiab Tiv Thaiv, raws li peb tau tshaj tawm hauv Lyme Kab Mob Tau Spiked Hauv Tebchaws Asmeskas Txawm hais tias 95 feem pua ​​ntawm cov xwm txheej tshwm sim hauv Northeast thiab North Central xeev, raws li CDC, nws tau nthuav tawm qhov tseeb (tsuas yog saib ntawm cov duab qhia hauv qab no). Qhov tseem ceeb dua? Cov cim qhia thaum ntxov qhia tias 2017 yuav yog lub caij ntuj sov doozy.

Yog vim li cas? Nas. Pom tau tias, muaj "tus mob plague loj" nyob hauv Hudson River Valley nyob rau sab qaum teb New York lub caij ntuj sov dhau los (cov tsiaj nyob txhua qhov chaw!). Vim tias nas yog qhov zoo ntawm kev kis Lyme (lawv kis tau 95 feem pua ​​​​ntawm cov zuam uas pub rau lawv), tus nas plague feem ntau txhais tau tias cov zuam yuav nce ntxiv rau lub caij ntuj sov tom ntej, raws li kws tshaj lij ecologist thiab Lyme kws tshaj lij Rick Ostfeld, Ph.D., raws li qhia los ntawm NPR. Thiab raws li Ostfeld, qhov no txhais tau tias lwm thaj chaw ntawm Northeast muaj kev pheej hmoo ib yam nkaus. Cov neeg coob coob ntawm mos lwj (uas tau yoov los ntawm cov zuam thiab pab kis rau lawv nyob ib puag ncig), kev hloov pauv huab cua, thiab kev hloov chaw hauv hav zoov tau tag nrho yog qhov ua rau muaj kev pheej hmoo kis mob Lyme, nws hais rau NPR.

ICYMI, Lyme kab mob yog ib qho txiaj ntsig loj. Qhov tseeb, "Lyme yog kev kis mob loj tshaj plaws cuam tshuam rau peb tam sim no," hais tias Kent Holtorf, MD, tus thawj coj kho mob ntawm Holtorf Medical Group, thiab kws tshaj lij Lyme uas muaj tus kab mob nws tus kheej.

Nws tuaj yeem tshwm sim nrog cov tsos mob hnyav xws li mob taub hau hnyav, ua pob, mob caj dab nrog mob hnyav thiab o, ntsej muag palsy (poob ntawm cov leeg nqaij lossis poob ntawm ib lossis ob sab ntawm lub ntsej muag), lub plawv palpitations, o ntawm lub hlwb thiab tus txha caj qaum, thiab teeb meem nrog lub sijhawm luv luv, raws li CDC. Kev ntseeg ib txwm yog cov neeg mob feem ntau rov zoo sai thiab tiav tom qab tau txais kev kho tshuaj tua kab mob, tab sis hauv qhov feem pua ​​me me ntawm cov xwm txheej, cov tsos mob nyob ntev dua rau rau lub hlis-qee yam qee zaum hu ua "mob Lyme ntev", thiab raug lees paub tias yog kev kho mob tom qab Lyme cov tsos mob (PTLDS). Txawm li cas los xij, kev tshawb fawb ntau thiab ntau qhia tias txawm tias cov neeg uas tau kho tus kab mob Lyme thiab tsis pom cov tsos mob yeej tsis rov zoo li qub rau lawv kev noj qab haus huv ua ntej Lyme, hais tias Holtorf.

(TBH, kev sib tham ib puag ncig Lyme mus sij hawm ntev tuaj yeem ua rau tsis meej pem. Nov yog yam koj yuav tsum paub txog tus kab mob Lyme ntev.)

Hmoov tsis zoo, Kab mob Lyme tsis yog qhov txaus ntshai nkaus xwb uas tuaj nrog zuam tom: "Xav txog zuam raws li rab koob qias neeg," hais tias Holtorf. Cov kab no tseem kis tau ntau (peb tab tom tham 15+) lwm yam kab mob, raws li CDC-kab mob uas yog tag nrho ntawm qhov sawv. Ob qhov tseem ceeb: babesiosis (cim los ntawm cov leeg mob, tawm hws hmo ntuj, thiab txawm tias qhov hnyav nce) thiab bartonella (cim los ntawm kev nyuaj siab, kev ntxhov siab, thiab kev ntshai, thiab tseem hu ua miv khawb kab mob), hais tias Holtorf. Vim tias lub caij ntuj sov no kwv yees li kev pheej hmoo ntawm Lyme yog vim cov neeg zuam siab, koj txoj kev pheej hmoo rau lwm yam kab mob no tuaj yeem nce ntxiv thiab.

Nco ntsoov xyuas koj cov plaub hau thiab tawv nqaij kom huv, vim tias cov buggers no tuaj yeem me me li tus pinhead, hais tias Holtorf. (Nyeem lwm txoj hauv kev los tiv thaiv koj tus kheej los ntawm zuam.)

Yog koj ua Tau txais zuam tom, xyuas kom koj rub tawm ntawm lub hauv paus los yog siv cov khoom siv tshem tawm zuam kom paub tseeb tias koj tshem tawm tag nrho. Txwv tsis pub, koj yuav raug tus zuam "ntuav" nws lub siab-thiab tus kab mob-rau hauv koj cov tawv nqaij, hais tias Holtorf. (Peb paub, tag nrho). Thiab tsis txhob txiav txim rau Lyme tsuas yog vim tias koj tsis tsim kev phom sij heev rau qhov muag qhov muag. Tsuas yog kwv yees li 20 feem pua ​​ntawm tib neeg tau ntsib tus tsos mob ntawd. Feem ntau, tib neeg qhia txog kev mob khaub thuas zoo li mob khaub thuas thiab qaug zog, feem ntau ua ke nrog cov pob liab liab, hais tias Holtorf.
