LYME.

Have you read Dr C's explanation of the Western Blot?? You have several Lyme-specific bands, not to mention a positive ELISA!!!

The ELISA is notable for its false-negatives, so if you have a positive that means a lot!!!

Sorry Tony, but I have to agree with Lymetoo. Sure looks like Lyme to me.

Please see a Lyme specialist (LLMD) and save yourself a lot of pain and suffering for the future. Good luck!!!!!!!!
