Topic: Core blood testing using Igenex - Wife has Lyme!

We just found out that my wife has Lyme!

She beening having symptoms for a while now, but thought they were due to her thyroid.

I convinced her to get tested just in case.

Her CD57 count is 42, and her bands were 39 IND and 41++.

We wanted to have another baby soon, but now I'm researching whether it's possible to have our 13 month old daughters Core Blood tested via Igenex?

Has anyone got their child's Core Blood tested?

I would think it would be possible! Post this in Medical so you'll get more replies.

Band 39 is very specific.

Sorry to hear that she has Lyme. So.. you also have it?

I'll assume she has been diagnosed by an LLMD? I wouldn't automatically assume it has to be Lyme based solely from an 39 IND and 41++ result.

If she also tested positive with co-infections and/or doc diagnoses her with Lyme, and has ruled out other causes, then very possibly she has it. To me, a 39 IND and 41 positive is an iffy result... maybe positive, maybe negative.

My LLMD diagnosed her based on her symptoms not the test results.

No co-infections, but low CD57.

I'm scared our daughter may have it and I want to test the Core blood.
