Since I have high antibodies to toxoplasma and suspected babesia (negative antibodies but they test only b.divergens in germany).
Could there be a cross reactivity ?

Stefan-In Lyme anything is possible. Toxo can be one of those kill you slow organisms,
or something can kick in and let the immune system down and allow every germ to multiply and take over...'
Thats why I pulse through antibiotics for everything I have symptoms for... And its working!!

I believe it can cross-react. I tested PCR whole blood positive for toxo through Vipdx, and negative through Quest, and reacted positively to toxo meds.
I was Igenex equivocal for babesia, and respond positively to babesia meds.
Every med for a protozoa/parasite works, so there must be something to it.
The doctors and researchers don't know all that's out there; it could be the Fry protozoa, or one of a hundred strains of babesia, or something yet discovered.

- Stefan,
I came across your thread about Leptospirosis the other day. I wonder if your doctor ever considered the persistent nature it can take. I know when you posted about that, your doctor didn't think it very important. I hope you were able to take another look. -------
