Welcome Iowa from 1 to another!
Neither are good!
We recommend:
Igenex in Calif; my personal no. 1 favorite;
MD Labs in new Jersey; 2nd;
Bowen labs in Florida; 3rd
I'll send you a PM, private message with my 18 pages of newbie links/advise which I have Igenex info in there.
Order their western blot igm & igg BLOOD TEST KIT. You can have the blood drawn locally MON. OR TUES. PM and promptly send.
Do you have a LLMD, lyme literate MD? PM me back if you need; we do not discuss LLMDS publicly. Click on 2 people standing together by envelope to send me a PM ok.
Where in Iowa are you located? You'll see where I am in my signature line. Bettyg

My daughter's doctor sent blood from the same blood draw to Igenex and Mayo Clinic. The Western Blot from Mayo came back negative, the one from Igenex came back positive. That was the beginning of this journey for us.
She has now been on antibiotics for 14 months and is probably 75-80% back to normal. She's back in school full-time, taking dance classes again, and pretty much leading a normal life .. except for all the meds she still takes.
Good luck.
P.S. I've lived in the DC area for the past 25 years. But I grew up in Iowa and my mother still lives in Des Moines.
