Not sure what to make of these and my ND is still learning to read them. I've been symptomatic for more than 10 years so this is a little disappointing for me.
IGM: **41 IND **83-93 +
IGG: **31 IND **34 IND **41 ++ 58 + **83-93 IND

It was suggested I follow up with a 31 Epitope test on the existing sample. Has anyone used this test for diagnosis?
Anybody who can enlighten me on these results, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

My daughter had an inconclusive result like this, so we tried antibiotics to see how she responded. Her response to abx confirmed her diagnosis.
Remember, it's a clinical diagnosis, testing is only for supporting/confirming the diagnosis.
The band 31 test might tell you something but you also have IND on band 34, which is specific.

I've found that link to be very helpful over the years. I also suggest printing out the whole thing so you can read over it from time to time. Very informative.
When you get the chance, also read all the responses on that link. Excellent information there as well!
