Concerned that you or someone you know may have contracted Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever? Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever Antibody Test in Portland, OR. This test measures IgM and IgG antibodies to Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. A person's body develops antibodies in response to an infection. Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF) is a bacterial disease which is spread through tick bites. There are several common tick species which can carry this disease. RMSF was first seen in the Rocky Mountains area but is also prevalent in the southeastern US as well as parts of Canada, Mexico, Central America, and South America. The signature symptom of RMSF is a rash which develops in most people who are infected, often around the wrists and ankles. The rash typically takes the forms of small red dots or red splotches and can spread up or down the body. Because most of the symptoms of RMSF are common to other conditions and the rash may not develop early in the illness, a diagnosis based just on symptoms can be difficult. Blood testing for RMSF antibodies is recommended.

Testing for RMSF is recommended for anyone who develops symptoms after being bitten by a tick or spending time outdoors in areas where ticks are prevalent. RMSF Antibody testing can sometimes show false positives due to cross-reactivity with other illnesses including Lyme Disease. There are two types of RMSF antibodies, IgM and IgG. The Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever IgM & IgG Test is available for a more thorough screening but results should always be interpreted along with symptoms and other relevant medical information.
