Despite a variety of antibiotics for several months since exposure to Lyme/Bart/Babs I have had the flu three times despite getting the shot (positive test) and have had various secondary infections-ear, sinus, bladder, upper respiratory and more several times, maybe 18 total in less than one year. It's like I can't fight off anything now. Before I was very healthy- 10 or less infections for 20 years. Any ideas/ suggestions? Articles about this? I've started adding B, C and D vitamins...

Compromised immunity, possibly from the tick-born infections. They're well known to do that.

You need to have your subclasses checked for your immune system. There are 4 of them and then the overall IGa. This is so important to tell you what your immune system is doing. Ask for the sub classes not just the IGa.

sk8ter - this went over my head. Is this a blood test? What are the 4?
