I know that you know you're recovering from lyme when you feel better...but...

Is it possible to track the recovery scientifically?

I know my dr has talked about CD-57 marker to check the immune systems strength, etc.

Are there any other tests to verify your body actually recognizes lyme and is fighting it?

Does the IGG, IGM bands on WB mean that your body is producing anti bodies to it?

Just thinking out loud...

Thanks!

No, science has not progressed that far. I doubt that it ever will.

IGG, IGM bands on WB cannot even be used during treatment to determine progress. Often, they are not 100% even with an active case.


The test is how a person feels over a span of time and how steady and reliable endurance and brain power are.


It is a process.
