I moved away from Texas in January of 2011. Had a bunch of blood transfusions during October and November of 2010. Wonder if it would have shown up in blood work before a couple of surgeries I've had since then. Is it something they have to test for specifically?

aware of the growing problem in the state, they are urging anyone who begins exhibiting flu-like symptoms and believes they have been bitten to contact the Texas Department of State Health Services for testing. Benznidazole and nifurtimox are 100 percent effective in killing the parasite and curing the disease, but only if given soon after infection at the onset of the acute phase, according to the WHO.
