My daugter received her results back. She showed positve on bankd 39 and 41 (Igenex IGM) and bankd 39 showed INd and positive for 41 (Ignenex - IGG). Doctor reveals she has Bartonella, Lyme and Ehrilichia. What type of symptoms would distinquish these types of bacteria? Does one cause more joint pain, etc

I would say that (Lyme & Ehrilichia) cause more joint pain.

Do a search on each one> like - (Bartonella symptoms).

How old is your daughter?
Is she seeing a LLMD?

Everything I say is just my opinion!

Bart is giving me excrutiating pain in my feet and joints...but is moreso known for the foot pain and pain in the base of the neck near the skull. I am assuming maybe the joint and muscle stuff for me is more Lyme...its hard to say. Should treat the Bart first and then get to LYme as the Bart is easiest and quickest to treat and onceyou peel that layer away its easier t get the lyme cleared up. At least from what I have been told and from my wn experience. Good Luck to her...and you too!

My antibody test came back positive, but Western blot did not have any reactive bands. Could I have Lyme?
