Protect Your Health from Tick-Borne Infections with Accurate Babesia Testing
If you’ve experienced tick bites or unexplained flu-like symptoms that just won’t go away, you understand the worry and uncertainty that comes with not knowing what’s causing your discomfort. Babesia microti is a serious tick-borne parasite that can lead to persistent health issues if left undetected. At Oracle Genomics, we provide the reliable testing you need for peace of mind and proper diagnosis.
Understanding the Babesia Microti Antibodies Test
This specialised test detects IgG and IgM antibodies your body produces when fighting Babesia microti infection. Think of it as your body’s early warning system – these antibodies appear when your immune system recognises this parasitic threat. Our advanced immunofluorescence assay technology ensures highly accurate results you can trust for making important health decisions.
The test requires a simple blood sample (2mL serum) with no special preparation needed, making the process straightforward and convenient for busy South Africans.
Who Should Consider This Important Test?
If you experience any of these symptoms after potential tick exposure, this test could provide crucial answers:
- Unexplained fever, chills, or sweating that comes and goes
- Persistent fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Muscle aches, joint pain, or headaches without clear cause
- Nausea, loss of appetite, or general malaise
- Dark urine or jaundice (yellowing of skin/eyes)
Particularly important for those who:
- Live in or have visited tick-prone areas in South Africa
- Work outdoors (farmers, gardeners, construction workers)
- Enjoy hiking, camping, or outdoor activities
- Have pets that may bring ticks into your home
- Have weakened immune systems or existing health conditions
