Hello,
I am new here. I have Morgellons disease and I was told to get tested for LYme disease . I did but I went to a doctor who did not use a lab that I keep hearing is the best Ignex. It was the Quest lab.


Anyway I have a copy of the results and I don't really get it.

He basically said he doubted I had Lyme disease from what he saw on the tests but I figured I wold ask someone here anyway.

I had the elisa test and the western blot. The western blot came back negative then it said IgG indeterminate A . I don't know if tht means much but I'm posting it just in case.


Then it says "CDC kDa band; IgM reacitivity noot significantly different from negative control IgG 41. While there is some IgG band reactivity the results, do not meet the CDC criteria for a western blot"


Then it says " rheumatoid factor is 7 and lyme result is borderline A nonreactive "


WHEW! sorry this is so long... Does ANYONE know what this means.

Please don;t tell me to call the doctor who did the test. He was just awful and I made the huge mistake of mentioning Morgellons to him so he thinks Im nuts .. Any info would be appreciated..

Thanks so much Hilary
