Redone again (LabCorp)in 3/05 showed IgM #41 positive.

By the way, no longer with that doctor who called people like me a "Zebra". She stated I have a lot of funny symptoms, and would not consider LD because I had no fever or rash.

I even described a major reaction (herx?)taking Ampicillian 500 mg every 6 hrs. for a week.

I felt sick for 3 weeks after taking that, having sweats for 2 weeks.

What happens if you got bit on the head? How would I know I had a rash? She had no answer.

On 5/05 WB test by MDL lab IgM no bands present and IgG #41 & #66 bands are present.

All coinfection testing by MDL came back neg.

Parvovirus B-19 IgG positive if >1.1
my result 5.3 WHAT PART DOES THIS PLAY IN THE LYME EQUATION?

EBV EARLY ANTIGEN Ab -Positive
EBV Ab VCA IgG >170 positive if over 19

The above test were run by another doc who was willing but not a LLMD and is not sure how to treat.

Yes, I have gotten names of some LLMD's from this very, very helpful board and have appt. in a few months.

Smells like lyme, walks like lyme, always lyme???

Thanks, Teddi

Many Lymies do not recall a rash or tick bite. Many do not have a fever.

Lyme suppresses the immune system and previous infections, like eb, mono or herpes , may no longer be held in check by your immune system.

good symptom checklist go to www.canlyme.com click on symtoms

Thanks for the reply, never thought of the LD suppressing the immune system angle.

I am on the cancelation list for the LLMD.

By the way when i did ask the doc what did it mean that #23 band did show up she replied 'I have no idea'. Amazing!
