http://www.stopthelymelies.com/lyme-disease-101/how-to-decipher-igenex-results It says twenty is cross reactive. I don't think they are lyme specific, but I could be wrong. That is just for the Western Blot anyway. What I do know is that there are about one hundred and one known genusis of borrellia now. Those are just the ones they KNOW of. You could still have it even if you are coming up negative.

I just saw you are from Europe. Did you get tested with a western kit, or did you get tested with a European kit? If you got tested with a U.S. lyme kit you are going to come up negative every time, even if you have it.
