Can rickettsia ( RMSF ) show up as Borrelia in a LabCorp test ?


It was to my understanding my first LabCorp test only needed a 20 pos. count and I had 60 pos. for Borrelia.


I wonder why that MD said it was RMSF after he said I had Lyme For 4 wks before test came back then changed to RMSF with a pos. for Borrelia.

I was still Pos For Borrelia after 4 months When my LLMD tested.

I suggest you call the office and ask for copies of all of your tests. Drive over and pick them up.

Then, you can post the results here for us to see and comment on them.

Then, you can also research the LabCorp site to understand the test results better.
