I live in KY and Igenix CA. I worry about spending the money and the sample not making it there in time. Should I pick a lab closer to home?

more NEW info on this too!
IgeneX has opened a lab down on Cape Cod, *****************************************
Nan (her LymeNet name and a Cape LDA Support Group leader) may know of what doctors utilize that lab and who may be more open to longterm treatment.
NAN, i hope you read this post and can furnish me the address/phone/fax no. for CAPE COD LOCATION!!
i haven't heard if anyone has used the brand new lab in mass. or not! fill me in mass/conn. folks ok!
we just recommend having blood drawn mon - wed. MORNING ONLY so it has plenty of time to get there without blood going bad!

--That's something you could ask them-- hopefully, they'd be in big trouble if they gave you a false answer. (the scum in the government probably are hoping for an excuse to shut them down; it appears to me, that there's some kind of "funny business" going on with Lyme treatment-- my hypothesis is that, in order to protect certain people whose errors might reflect badly on certain ...'respected'.... institutions, as well as to save ...'insurance' companies (one of the largest, uh, ...'industries'.... we have here), some funds ("to help 'turn around' the tanked economy"). Thus people who are very ill with Lyme and other nasty illnesses are mis-diagnosed as having ailments that are orders of magnitude cheaper to treat.) DaveS Posted by Paula 007 (Member # 8002) on :
Even the Igenex guy says his test is only about 50% accurate.
Why doesn't anybody have the Bowen QRIBb?
It shows the Lyme tumors (groups of spirochetes). Glossy pics in about 48 hours. Cost $250 when we had ours.

Is it true that the QRIB's never returned a negative result?

It's not a problem...blood is shipped all over the world. Most of the tests are serum anyway.

I would never consider a local lab. They do not know HOW to do the tests properly and will not report on all the bands that Igenex does.
The Fed Ex system works great. Igenex has a kit and Fed Ex box . . . you need to have it done early in the week, though.
I tested positive with Igenex and QRIBb (2 different docs). I saw an interview with the Igenex leader, though, in which he said plainly that Igenex is ony 50% true.
And I've read for 3 years now from you guys about Igenex. Sometimes bands don't show positive if your body has not started developing antibodies.
Or if it has . . . how do I know? I got Lyme.
