Tested positive Igm 23 and 41 and the Igg bands tested negative.
never had a bulls eye rash or even remember a tick bite. I did have a rash on my chest though that were little red bumps with white centers that hurt when you would try to pop them like acne. What does 23 outer protein and 41 flagella mean? wondering if anyone has had these results and what helped them to get better. I have had doxy. for 26 days and had terrible reactions or herxing and had to stop on the 26th day. so i wondered if these 2 bands were known for being terrible or what was used(antibiotics) to try and beat this stuff?

- Ohhh, please do not pop any rash or blister, ever.

Band 23 is Lyme specific.
That is all I had when I was tested via Quest.
You really need to find a Lyme Literate Medical Doctor.
I never saw the tick that got me. Never had a rash.
Go to Seeking a Doctor section.
Post your city and state.
Someone will direct you to a LLMD from there.
