Tick Talk Ireland Homepage
Welcome to Tick Talk Ireland, a charity set up to encourage awareness, prevention and treatment of Lyme disease (Borreliosis) in Ireland.
Lyme disease is currently the world's fastest growing vector-borne infection (spread by ticks). As Ireland's first Lyme disease charity we hope to spread awareness and encourage quick diagnosis and treatment of this debilitating disease.
The symptoms of Lyme may vary according to the stage of disease and can range from mild to severe, depending on the immune system of the sufferer, stress, length of infection as well as the level of co-infections in the body such as bartonella, anaplasmosis & babesia. Some people may have asymptomatic Lyme disease with no symptoms present, however symptoms may emerge months or years after the initial infection.
