Can anyone help me to understand my ER reports. My csf glucose levels are 101mg. Centrex lab says norms are 70-100mg. My hands are tremoring, eyes blurred, hand numb 3 weeks, head severe pain and stiff neck but they say csf normal.

My blood work is just as confusing to me. The Lyme IgG WB Interp. says Negative; then Positive:5 of the following Borrelia-specific bands:18,23,28,30,39,41,45,58,66,93; and next, Negative: No bands or banding patterns which do not meet positive criteria.

IgM P23 Ab says Present AB
Lyme IgM WB Interp. Negative
Positive: 2 of the following bands: 23,39 or 41
Negative: No bands or banding patterns which do not meet positive criteria.

Criteria for positivity are those recommended by CDC/ASTPHLD
p23=Osp C, p41=flagellin.

I am sick and I am confused. Can someone explain this to me? Very appreciative for help.

You may need to change your topic to mention LYME testing.

Or I can fix it for you since you are feeling ill. Let me know.

Wish I knew more about either test! That Lyme test is weird.
