Just read up on rickettsial infection.
Sounds on the money, and the fact that my symptoms seem to diminish with each bite it seems I am possibly developing immunity. It's like a cold with no sore throat.. Very mild lymph node swelling, and lethargy, but no real fever to speak of.
I've been bitten so many times now and very well could have had a feverish initial infection some time ago which I never linked to being bitten.
I'm totally healthy right now so pretty sure no lyme or anything more sinister.
I'm one of those lucky people who are magnets to all things blood sucking, I can get eaten by mosquitoes while everyone around me doesn't get a single bite, same with fleas. I've already tested positive to antibodies for Ross river and some other forest fever, results of which popped up from a blood test few years ago, so maybe now I'm rickettsial immune too.
I've travelled heaps in Asia and touch wood never gotten malaria....
