I knew I needed to do this. So now I wait. Gotta know. May be thyroid, may be menopause, may be relapse, one way or the other, although the test won't prove anything, at least I've done it. So there.

I will, Putnam. At least it will give me peace of mind.

I don't have the results of the CD-57 yet. But they say my thryroid is acting normally. If it's not my thyroid, then .....well, I won't go there yet. I was hoping it's thyroid. My new doc is getting my records from my LLMD. Whatever the deal is, this doc is willing to go the extra mile with a LL mind!

The results are back on the CD57. Normal range.
The absolute CD57 was 103, compared to when I was sick, when it was 119. Go figure!
The other percentage was 3.8, compared to a 5 when I was sick. Go figure!
So now that I'm supposedly not sick, the number is down and still considered in the normal range.

My son and I are doing CD-57's tomorrow. Hope ours is up there with yours. For us it will be a climb. Sorry yours is down. It could be worse- doesn't help, does it?
How far into treatment are you? Are you on antibiotics?
My son takes BRM4 to increase his killer T cells. We will know in a week or so if it worked.

I haven't been on antibiotics for the last year. I treated for 4.5 months, was early disseminated. All my tests were negative, yet I was sick as a dog. I got better, though, eventually. I just started having fatigue and sleepiness again, losing my hair.
Strange how the test number went down. I'm staying alert on it, though.

I wouldn't know what a 100+ CD-57 looked like if it smacked me in the face. My number is usually 30-50.

I believe the test fluctuates. I think it can be different at different times of day...if my memory serves me right. I wish I could break 40 on mine
