I am looking for both a good testing lab in Northern Virginia and a physician referral. As I have major lyme cardio effects, would prefer someone with board certification in cardiology. Sent samples to Quest and they never completed their western blot. How about Clongen?

You may find more input over in Medical for specifics you ask for.

No matter where you get the test done it will still take 2 weeks to complete.

I do not know the specific on Clongen but they do state the IDSA guidelines so I would go with Igenex if you require testing.

You request a test kit and draw and ship.

Remember to always get copies of all tests and pics of any rashes.

Are you on IV antibiotics or orals?

I would repost your questions regarding labs in Medical Questions. Hopefully, someone will have answers here regarding your doctor referral.
