As of now, the analysis of the cellular activity against Borrelia miyamotoi is performed at ArminLabs by means of the certified EliSpot method.
Symptoms: relapsing fever, chills, headaches, joint and muscle pain, fatigue, nausea/vomiting, sometimes conjunctivitis, and cough at an incubation period of 5-15 days. Typically, the symptoms appear for 2-9 days. They can recur in periods of different lengths or even persist. Contrary to an infection with Borrelia burgdoferi, an erythema migrans does typically not appear.
Atypical symptoms: abdominal pain, diarrhoea, hepatitis, myocarditis, arrhythmia, pulmonary symptoms (like ARDS), disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), facial nerve paralysis, hearing loss, iritis, polyneuropathies or neuropsychiatric symptoms.
