I'm confused. You were positive on ALL these bands you posted?
Then you have Lyme

The first bands had a + next to them. The others did not have a + but were double starred ?

It would be best if you could post the test exactly as it's written. Stars and + mean two entirely different things. Also, some bands probably have + or ++ or +++ which also means different things.
I would hate to interpret what I *think* you're saying and be misunderstanding you.

Also tested " hi " for Epstein Barr. I see that could intervere with testing. Are there specific bands that could not be affected by EPS ?

You mentioned a positive for EB...which on the Igenex lab results it says that if you have positives for certain bands it could be a false positive because of EBV and other viruses. So what does that mean exactly, does anyone know? I had a lot of the same bands positive, but back in high school I had EB, which I think is linked to Mono? Anyone know about EBV and Lyme and distinguishing the two on Western Blot? Does EBV cause similar symptoms as Lyme? I'm going to an LLMD on Monday so hopefully some of my Q's will be answered.

Buzz.. Sorry, I just now found this! Looks like yours is completely negative. None of those bands has a + .. right??
31 IND could mean something. You can get a confirmatory test on band 31 if this was done thru Igenex. If it comes back positive, then it's Lyme for sure.
