Also: Traumatic Brain Injury. But if you saw it here, chances are... Tick-related.

Yup Pip- traditionally

TBI is Traumatic Brain Injury

so that is why I prefer the term TBD for tick born disease!!!

With all the new shrapnel Vets from Iraq the term TBI for the above will be even MORE in use. So TBD is better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
