i decided to call my llmd office and change my appt for the bloodwork to be done right after the ten days off of doxy
Since im feeling awful these days my new appointement will be january 11th, at 9;30am thats a monday., i will go back for the result on the 1st of feb.
instead of having to draw blood work on feb 1, i will be getting my result of the lyme test. i requested this, since i am feeling like i was hit by a snow truck.
now i ask of you lynmets, can my 41dk band show up negative AFTER it show 41 reactive.
if they all come back negative...but im still feeling like crap,and i believe they will all be negative.
do i get my money back from igenex.
THEN What do i do, or who do i see, cause i am feeling like crap every day.
cfs, hhv6, mycobacterium, hsv1, cmv, pirovirus, and Epstein Barr virus.... digestive system

To answer your question, yes, any lyme band can show Negative after showing Reactive. Band 41 is not lyme specific and think it is a good idea you are getting tested through Igenex. They will not refund your money.

Why would Igenex refund money to people with negative test results? They did the work you've paid them to do--test your blood. Just because it's negative doesn't mean they didn't do their job.
And if you do get a negative test, your LLMD will point you in whatever direction you need. Don't worry until you see the results. It's emotional energy you could be using for something else.

What makes you worry that your bands will all be negative? And even if they are lyme is a clinical diagnosis and since you are seeing a good LLMD, he will make a diagnosis based on your symptoms.
Also no need to cross bridges before you come to them. Take it one day at a time.
