The key exchange between the blood and body cells are the gases involved with cellular respiration. Carbon dioxide produced by respiration is absorbed by the blood, and oxygen â¦ being carried by hemoglobin in the blood is diffused into the cells.
Reports show failure rates of 30 62% within 3 years of short-course treatment using antibiotics thought to be effective for Lyme disease. Conversely for neurologic complications of Lyme disease, doubling the length of intravenous ceftriaxone treatment from 2 to 4 weeks improved the success rate from 66 to 80%.
Signs of Lyme disease include skin rash and painful inflammation of joints (particularly the knees), accompanied by flu-like symptoms. The symptoms of Lyme disease increase in severity as the disease spreads though the body. Early diagnosis and treatment are important to stop the progression of the disease. If untreated, the disease can result in neurological disorders such as peripheral neuropathy, including Bellâs palsy, as well as pain, numbness or weakness in the limbs.
