Doctor, my lip has started to thicken and my gall bladder is quivering. Does this mean I have hand, foot, and mouth disease?
It's probably babesiosis. You will need to have a heart valve replacement and possibly arthroplasty. You should also eliminate sweet potatoes from your diet.
You may find yourself barking occasionally over the next six weeks. Call me if your lip is still thickening after that.
