What lab is the best for Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever testing?

Well I have been treated for all of the other tick borne diseases. I had both of the ehrlichias badly. Been on Doxy twice at 4 months at a time. Been in treatedment for 1 1/2 years. (ehrlichiosis, babesia and bartonella)

I have been doing this bioenergic testing and RMSF came up 5 times the first time.
Now after 4 months of doxy it is still coming up 2 times. I want to get my blood checked. Any suggestions?

If you'd stop running around kissing so many ticks.. you wouldn't have this problem.

I have not heard of one lab being better or worse. From what I understand.. one is about as good as another... and the test has been around a while.

Sorry I have no better info.
