I'm sure that this is a touchy subject as I would never want to give Lyme to anyone- even a mouse BUT

has anyone had testing where their blood sample is grown in a host and then tissue samples tested?

Perhaps there is not enough concentration of bacteria for this to work?

I'm sure that this is expensive-

BUT I am FED UP with not knowing exactly what I have!!

It seems to me that one of the real horrors of Lyme is that so many people are treated incorrectly for so long while the bacteria gets a stronger hold in a weakened immune system-

If time is the essence in treatment then why don't we use more extreme methods in testing?

Thanks for your thoughts-

and apologies to any that are offended by the thought of sacrifricing lab rats-

They would have to have an accurate test to test the mouse before your blood is injected into it and that is hard to do and thus we are back to the great debate...how do you culture the lyme bacteria accurately anywhere.
