I have read that coinfection with mycoplasmas and anaplasmas can happen. I was tested through Quest for these and they came back negative. Should i trust that i dont have them? or is quest just as bad for testing these as they are for lyme?

I think testing is better for them. I have been tested twice and both times came up pos. for Myco...haven't had a pos. Lyme/CO test yet...

I would try another lab facility. I have never had too much luck with Quest. Labcorp has a good co-infection panel
