Does anyone know of the lab in Westchester that does sin biopsies for lyme/co-infections. Local dermatologist has agreed to do biopsy for my son later today but have no idea where to request to send it to and my llmd is difficult to get in touch with. My llmd was the one who told me the biopsy is only worthwhile if it gets to Westchester. Thanks for any help!

Maybe you could have the biopsy done today and ask the doctor to hold the sample until you talk with your LLMD about where to send it for testing.

He is probably sending it to igenex...they all send samples there. YOu can give igenex and call and see if they accept them. Also labcorp is used by llmds alot...call both of them.
why is he doing a skin biopsy for lyme? Does your son have morgellans (skin blisters that burst and crust over?)
