@aeg73 so you are not yet fully sure that you have Lyme but things point to that, correct? If it does turn out to be Lyme how do they treat it? From what I know the earlier treatment is started the better the results. My niece has Lyme, I think once you have it it is not cured but can be in remission. She does have occasional days when she does not feel well but overall she is fine. She has a daughter, works, and lives a full life. I hope you can get a definite diagnosis soon and move forward with treatment. I hope you will keep us up to date.

@roseofonegarden I’m happy for you that you do not have symptoms. Take precautions and stay healthy.

Hi @contentandwell. I suspect that I have Lyme or a co-infection of Lyme as I have had more than 7 IgM Lyme bands show reactive or positive on a Quest test and a Stonybrook test but they weren't identical results which makes the whole journey that much more confusing and lengthy process. Even MDs don't agree with one another on the topic and treatment of Lyme. I am currently one band shy of being CDC positive but LLMD's don't follow they order & number of bands to a tee like the CDC. I guess some people can show negative with no Lyme bands on all tests except a tissue biopsy or spinal fluid test- hoping to avoid those methods. I just got the Igenex blood lab drawn so we shall see what that shows. Regardless I think (fingers crossed) I'll finally gets some treatment but the Lyme Doc I saw recently said it's most likely chronic at this point because I went untreated for so long. I am not bed bound like some people but I am tired or running on low everyday because my sleep is so disturbed. I feel old and slather on CBD oil before bed, hope to put it in remission as well. It's a pandemic though that is sadly going without enough discussion. I don't wish it on anyone and hope less people will be in my shoes or worse off shoes but I am grateful it's not worse.
