I've recently visited with an MD who specializes in infectious diseases. He told me that when combined the Elisa and Western Blot tests are 85% accurate. Is this true? Is it still very possible (greater than 15%) to have lyme after getting a negative result for both these tests?
thanks!!

- Even if you fall into the 15%, being ill is not what you want to continue doing. If you are ill, get HELP!
