Anybody have any articles that state that spinal taps are less than 10% accurate in detecting Lyme. I wanted to post on a migraine/dizziness forum where admin is constantly bashing Lyme and stating incorrect info. Thanks!!

In addition to LymeToo's & TF's replies . . .

as you encounter the need to help others with this question -- you might find it easier to also just post these basic links - then you don't have to defend and explain, the LL authors' work will do that FOR you:


http://www.anapsid.org/lyme/lymeseroneg.html

Reasons for False Negative (Seronegative) Test Results in Lyme Disease


http://flash.lymenet.org/scripts/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=015508;p=0

Diagnosing Lyme Disease (&/or whatever else is going on)

Other tick-borne infections and other chronic stealth infections - as well as certain conditions that can hold us back - are discussed here.


http://flash.lymenet.org/scripts/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=013239;p=0

What is a LLMD? LL ND? What is ILADS?

WHY you need an ILADS "educated" or "minded" Lyme Literate doctor (whether MD or ND, or both) - starting with assessment / evaluation.

Medical "models" explained here, as to differences in the ISDA & ILADS models of assessment & treatment - and exactly why it is so very important to know the differences.
