If you go to Igenex web site.

http://www.igenex.com/lymeset2.htm

you will see tests available. I assume you have

not tested so that must mean you either had a

rash or your doctor suspects it by your symptoms.

Or your first tests were suspicious for it but

inconclusive. You can email them and request a

test kit. They did request no antibiotics in the

system for at least 10 days, but I would ask to

be sure this is current. And If money is an

option I would go with IgG and IgM at least.

There are many tick diseases that can cause some

symptoms of lyme but with different blood

indicators so that is also a consideration.

Good Luck and if you do test positive there are

many people here to help you with treatment.
