Hi,

Does anyone know if anything can give you a false positive babesia test? I've been wondering since my titer was so low.

I know certain viruses can give give you bands on a lyme test and skew results -- even Igenex states this in their disclaimer.

Anything like that with babesia?

Thanks,
Jen

Possibly Toxoplasma for WA-1, but I'm not even sure about that.
