I was wondering if anyone could tell me some info on IgeneX.I know they do testing for tick borne disease's.Do patients order test kits themselves and send them back for testing,or once you find a LLMD that will help you,do they order the test from IgeneX.I have blood work from local hospital,but they say I am only showing 1 marker,and will not treat me with intravenous antibiotics,or pill form for that matter,since I have had about4 or 5 three week courses of oral antibiotics,not consecutively,but spaced out over 2 years. I Was wondering if I should order a test kit,and how much they are,or wait till I talk to LLMD first.

You can order the kit ,but a lab will not do a blood draw without a doctors order. Will your current doc do another test at your request? You have to pay up front for Igenex.

Tests #188 and 189 are what you need. You could wait till your appointment though. Do you have one?
