My results the first time around were:

igm- 39+ 41 IND
igg- 41+ 66+ 39 IND

He put me on 10 days amoxy and made me retest again only for IGM;

Results were:

IGM

30+
41+
39 IND

What do my test results say?

Find an LLMD ASAP!!!! 10 days of antibiotics won't do much for that Lyme!!!

I'll be back tomorrow.... but for now... print this out and read it several times...

(sorry.. I'm off to bed!)

PS... Wait a minute. You registered here in 2007???? [confused]

Yes, my symptoms started in 2007 they went away for a good couple of years. I have in the past 4 days started to have the same headache/neckpain as I did in 2007, so I started to think about lyme again. Dr. H is who I went to, he told me I had borderline lyme, gave me 10 days of amoxy, I was pregnant at the time. Soon after my symptoms went and I had none for 2 years. I was never even sure if I had lyme or not? Get back to me tomorrow please.

ChuckG, I don't know what you meant by copy pasting my old post??

Posted by Marline (Member # 13075) on :

Can someone just tell me do lyme symptoms subside for a few years and come back out of nowhere?

Posted by WildCondor (Member # 434) on :

What are you talking about? That post with quote makes no sense to me. The poster has Lyme specific bands, especially 39+.

Marline, yes, they can it depends on your immune system status.

Is there anyway that I could have 39+ and not have lyme. Why was my doc not telling me that I have it 100%, I just don't get it.
