I've been collecting the ticks that we are picking off of our body.. still in complete form, we are finding alot in our area.. and we are bound and determined to confirm that there is Lyme in our area. But where can we send these ticks off to, so that we will know that we'll get a good report back? Please, somewhere other than I-Genex, that will probably cost a fortune. Please tell me where and how to do this that will be reputable and respected by physicians who are denying this issue.

I moved this topic to Medical Questions so you would get more answers. Please look for it there as well.

Wow, that's a great idea. I never thought of doing that.

We should all be doing that with ticks we see, even unattached ticks.
-as long as it's affordable!

I can't find this topic in Medical...

This is BRILLIANT. I wanted to bump it up to the top.

I know you said not Igenex, but this didn't sound unreasonable to me.

I read that Igenex will test up to 20 ticks for lyme at the cost of $65.

Great idea, by the way!
