Check out this link, it'll help you a lot. Certainly have some concerns with your tests.
If your symptomatic, with these test results, I'd get it treated.

Yes you are positive.
But you aren't making any IgG antibody's against Lyme... so IMO, when someone has a positive IgM and a negative IgG blot, Lyme has sucessfully supressed your immune system - and IgG antibodies are the biggest guns against Lyme.

Hope you are being treated by a knowledgable Dr.

Thanks you guys.

I am going to the FFC right now but am looking into some other alternative treatments along with it. The abx is killing me probably because, like you said Barb, my immune system is shot.

Stephen Buhner's herbs look good plus I've started to Rife and am herxing on it so its working!
