Hi Help--
Most folks think Igenx is the best lab--
The test from Any lab are Very poor -- Perty much useless-
They can cause more harm than good because doctors put to much faith in them--
To many things can sque test results--
Use symptoms only to DX your illness-
I have Lyme and babs For Sure -Zero doubt-
My Igenx tests came back--IND--
Every test I have had over 20 yrs said I was in Perfect health--I was not-Jay--

Believe it or not I have heard of good quest labs but I have heard of plenty that are just terrible when it comes to lyme there all over thje states. One Igenex and there good. MDL lab has been said its good too? Also remember if the LLMD or Dr asks for the wrong lyme test or doesnt require the lab to look for specificly antigens and that particular lab looks for only cdc antigens your sunk.
I would go with Igenex then bowen then Mdl.
