My doctor has the test at his office waiting for me, but I know that it's probably going to cost me about $450.00 if Medicare doesn't pay for it.

Can anyone tell their experience with the test and if they tested postitive or negative? Thanks!

My daughter tested positive for Fry bug. So far have treated it with Alinia, Arteminisin.

I think symptoms resemble babesia due to the fact that Dr. originally thought she had babesia until these test results. Shortness of Breath.

Sorry, hard for me to sort out symptoms because there are so many and she has Lyme, Q Fever, and Bartonella too.

Medicare doesn't cover, as far as I know. As far as symptoms, it is very personal and not tied to one grouping.
