Hi - Just got my WB results back and had 6 positive bands. My dr. says this indicates I was probably exposed 3 to 4 years ago? Anyone else get similar advice?

I've never heard of using the WB to determine length of infection. Most LLMDs usually use a symptom history to determine length of infection.

He was talking about the difference between Igg and Igm ones new infection and the other older.

Yes, Tree is directing you to look at your IgG and IgM results.... Aniek is letting you know that no one can really say how long Bb has been in your body.

The llmd is going to treat you until you are two months symptom free and I would hope test for things that may interfere with successful treatment.
