which tests should be run? I have a regular doctor signature but they don't know which tests to do? Also for Lone Star Tick? Lyme & Co-infections?

Broad Coverage Lyme Ab Assay

Broad Coverage Babesia Ab Assay or Babesia FISH

Broad Coverage Bartonella Assay

I hope others come along with their suggestions but it has been over 20 years since I had Lyme testing.

It has been so long since I was tested, I don't know what to say. Except, if I was to be tested, I would definitely use only IGeneX.

Perhaps call them? I was under the impression that they have helpful customer service.

Is is GalaxyLabs that is the recommended Bartonella test?

I havent called-I heard they have doctors to screen & test. I had another doctor sign last year-hopes its still good. Need a mobile lab person to come out to draw blood. Don't know what dr I will go to if positive. Think I have severe irreversible damage with nerves. 30 years since original lyme.

Hi Marie

Do have about 1 1/2 hours to watch a video featuring Dr Joesph Burrascano and his work @ IGeneX? He throughly goes through each test offered and why you might want to test with them.

Here’s Dr Marty Ross’s score card on the most recent tests available and what you need to order depending on your circumstances.

Marie, if you are dealing with nerve damage, I highly recommend you read the very long thread of mild hyperbaric oxygen treatment.

I went 30 years as well between tick bites and diagnosis. mHBO does not cure everything, at least for me. But! I went from non-functional to functional. I am forever grateful.

And if you went with purchasing a chamber, it would not matter what the testing prove or did not prove. You would just slowly get better.
