Does everyone who tests positive or negative all have Lyme?? should we all assume that just because we have all these weird symptoms, that are strange and bizarre, that they are all LYME..
I swear I just don't know what to believe anymore. What is this crazy thing that we all have these weird symptoms to? How reliable is an I-Genex test?
If I had a bunch of folks tested through I-Genex, would they all show up with having positive and IND titers?.. and be perfectly fine?
I know all this, yet I can't deny the pain I'm in, the floaters on my eyes, I know that something is horribly wrong with me..
anyone have any more thoughts on this crazy mess??

Igenex at least tests for ALL possible bands. My test thru them was not clearly positive, but I responded to treatment and am now well.
Don't give up until you're well... doesn't matter how you get there!

All Igenex does when performing their Western Blots is what the IDSA crooks themselves proved needs to be done. The CDC criteria excludes among other things, the presence of antibodies to the only universally expressed Bb antigen and the antigen that they freaking used to make the Lyme vaccine. Igenex looks for these and several other molecules whose presence is indicative of Lyme, and as a result catch it more often than other labs.
There's a coverup going on, unfortunately, and you'll here a lot of BS batted around about lyme being easy to diagnose, hard to catch, and easy to cure as a result. You need to educated yourself--here are a few good places to start:
