Lyme Disease

Lyme disease, caused by Borrelia burgdorferi and transmitted by ticks, is increasingly common. Dogs and horses are at high risk due to outdoor activities. Symptoms range from lethargy, appetite loss, and fever to swollen lymph nodes, arthritis, and neurological issues.

​

Testing and Monitoring: Momentum Diagnostics’ test detects eight antibodies produced at the early and late stages of infection in a single 0.1 mL sample. The test distinguishes between vaccination and infection titers. Early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent chronic Lyme disease.

If you find a tick on your dog or horse, test for Lyme disease and follow up after treatment to ensure complete recovery.
