Oh, and the reason I say maybe no one would know is because those who study animals/ticks and/or work in labs typically don't see patients to make a comparison.
Since the IDSA/CDC/Hopkins still won't admit Bartonella can be transmitted by ticks, not much funding in that area also.

And some of us, like me, have Bartonella, surely BOTH from cats AND ticks. Grrrr. Had multiple sick, stray cats in my younger years, plus. uncountable, known tick bites.
But, you're right Lymetoo, no research for tick-borne Bart, as the powers that be don't think it exists.
