Hello,
If people want to see what Bartonella symptoms inc. stretch marks look like, they come up on this pretty good (starts on slide 23):

I'm starting on Rifampicin in a couple of weeks, which is indicated for Bartonella. Jason thinks its definitely what it is killing his problems.
I don't get the Bartonella stretch marks on my back or stomach -got stretch marks on my hips instead which I've had since symptoms kicked off when I was 17.
On the cat thing. I know for sure that I gave morgs to him, not the other way round. I have thought about giving him away in the past, but then he'd spread it to the family he goes to.
I wipe down all surfaces regardless of what tricks he's up to. He's had access to the best dewormers in town - more so than me and he's VERY fastidious about keeping his coat clean.
He's my responsibility and my buddy. Whatever works for me, will work for him also when a cure is established.
- I've considered this carefully, in my situation. If I had young children, I'd have other considerations and priorities to think about I'm sure.
Life goes on
