I am trying to figure out my results from Fry lab. Everything came back negative, but I have 12 arrows pointing to the mystery bug. This seems like a lot, but I have no reference. For you that have had testing done there, is this indicative of a heavy infection load or have others had similar outcomes? Thanks!

Your smear should say: Few coccobacilli present, or Moderate coccobacilli present, or many coccobacilli present.

I had about 4 arrows and it said *few coccobacilli present*

I imagine that somewhere on your picture it would say *many*

Yes, it did say many and I have constant relapses that I cannot hardly bear anymore. High doses (3000 mg/day)of Artemesia pulsed 3 X week use to help, but not any longer. I have tried all natural stuff knowing I was fighting something similar to Babesia as those meds did something for me. 10 years of I/V and oral abx and 3 countries of treatment later and I am just tired of fighting. I saw my LLMD today and he wrote scripts for Biaxin and Plaquinil, but RX stuff usually is too strong for me anymore. I am hopeful I can tolerate the meds and something positive comes out of this.
