History and exam: There is no widely available test but if you have been exposed to raccoons and have symptoms consistent like nausea, tiredness, liver enlargement, loss of coordination, lack of attention to people and surroundings, loss of muscle control, blindness or in severe cases you can develop a coma. If your exposure is strong and your healthcare provider can not rule out this infection from other causes...Yes.
