Headache
Many people with tularemia report a headache and exhaustion. Depending on the type of tularemia, they may also experience sensitivity to light.1‘Signs and Symptoms of Tularemia | CDC.’ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 18 Dec. 2019, www.cdc.gov/tularemia/signssymptoms/index.html
A person may experience headache, fever, chills, exhaustion and swollen glands but not have an ulcer on their skin. This may still be tularemia. Glandular tularemia is similar to the ulceroglandular type, but doesn't cause ulcers. This type is also usually caught through a tick bite or by handling infected animals.2‘Tularemia - Symptoms and Causes.’ Mayo Clinic, 29 Aug. 2018, www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/tularemia/symptoms-causes/syc-20378635
