My test from MDL for Bart/babesia/Elichria are negative, so i am only positive Bb by IgG/M & negative WB- I am on 200 mg of doxy & 1000 mg of flagyl 200 mg of plaquenil. Not with a llmd, only md/cns. I am getting ready to make an appt with DC.C in Tampa,fl....

That's interesting. I tested negative for everything thru MDL. Months later, I called them and spoke with one of their docs, as I couldn't figure out why I was still sick after months of doxy. I asked him if it would make any difference that I was on abx when tested. He said that yes, it would totally influence the test. (I had been on my 6th week of doxy when my blood was drawn.)
My new LLMD said according to all my symptoms, I have at least lyme & bart. No need to spend my money on tests that can be false negative, he'll just treat. (His words.) Gotta love a good LLMD!

Me too - I was IgM and IgG positive for Bb through IgeneX and CDC when tested several months ago...
Started Doxy and was tested through MDL 6 weeks later, everything came back negative. Hmm.
My other positives still showed up through MDL, though (mycoplasma, HHV-6).
