I am relieved at the results.
I do know that the test is not 100% and that it most certainly did not test for everything but it is still a relief. A load off my mind considering if it had come back positive for anything it would have stressed me out very badly.
still on doxy
I posted this as a new thread to ensure that those who asked about it would see it. Thanks

How long can you keep a tick before it is not able to be processed?

I also sent a tick to be tested and received the same exact results that you did....
