I got these tests done.

By IGeneX

Western blot IGM
Western blot IGG
Lyme PCR serum, genomic
Lyme PCR serum, Plasmid
Lyme IFA G/M A Screen**

would that be accurate enough?

Let's hope so! Igenex is the best lab!

Do keep in mind that Lyme is a clinical diagnosis.. so make sure you are evaluated by a good LLMD!!

It's also important to test for co-infections. And, like said above, it is super important to being seeing a LLMD. A regular doc may just go by a negative test result, but a LLMD will evaluate the whole picture including possible co-infections. This makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE. Good luck!
