Were the tests positive because the patients all had Lyme disease, or were they positive because the tests were inaccurate?
Too bad this is the main criticism of Igenex also. I'm guessing they're gonna say the same for these new culture tests.

The website for the lab at this point is very vague. It does not mention any test benchmarking, lab certifications or ownership. Maybe there are some patent issues which are not resolved yet?
I hope that they remedy this soon! It's very exciting news!

- I think it was very accurate and the CDC or government was "threatened by it."
They don't want the truth to come out.

I am a bit confused. I was always told that chronic lyme was not in the blood but drilled into the tissues. Maybe my brain fog is preventing me from comprehending. Is this test finding bb in the blood or just the immune response?

Perhaps the hope is that if even a few bacteria are hanging out in the blood, they will grow in culture and will then be easily visible.
