after treatment do lab results change?

is theer a way to tell if lyme is getting better or is it just by symptoms?

is it worthwhile for md to retest after abx?

thanks, amy

It's hard to say... everyone is different.

Is it worth it to retest?? Depends upon how much money you have!

Just don't stop treatment if the test comes back better and your symptoms are still there.

You need to continue abx for at least 2 months after you are symptom free.
