Sounds like both Lyme and EBV are issues for you. I would pursue possibly a CD57 and certainly coinfection testing for Ehrlichia, Bartonella, and Babesia. Most importantly, get an LLMD and start your recovery.

I'm sorry for my slowness, but what is CD57, and what other blood tests should i ask for? Thanks!!!!!!! [bow]

That looks like a positive test, so I would find an LLMD and get started on treatment if you are having symptoms.

You can post under seeking doctors to find a Lyme specialist near you.
