I just had 2nd LLMD visit today.

Here are my Igenex Results:

Igm

18kDa +

31kDa +

34kDa IND

39kDa IND

41kDa +

66kDa +

83-93kDa +

IGG

23kDa +

31kDa +

34kda +

39kDa IND

41kDa ++

58kda +

CD57 50

I am glad I had antibodies show up to give me a sense of assurance that I am on the right path.

He started me out with Doxy200mg/2, omnicef, and tindamax.

Although, after looking at my labs he said I also have mycoplasma and strep. He gave me colloidal silver.

Anyone have similar igenex results? How about Mycoplasma?

BettyG,

Yes I just looked over what the bands indicate, and reallize that most of these are indicative of lyme.

The only one im not sure about is band 18.

Some people say it is positve and others say it's unknown.

I'm not sure, but I think igenex says this is a lyme band.

18 highly specific to Lyme (Many LLMD's say if this band alone is positive, you have lyme - see link above)

YES, IT'S POSITIVE Smile

Hi Dunky. I have to say day 3 or 4 on Doxy is usually when one starts an extreme herx if it's really killing the lyme or co.

Try everything you know to detox to make it better.

With Him we "live" no matter the circumstances. At His feet peace of mind can be found. Peace that passes all understanding is my quest now and forever.

Numbers 6:24-26
"The LORD bless you and keep you;the LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace."

hugs dunky; so sorry you're feeling like crap.

write down what your symptoms are and when they stop; see later if there is a pattern so you'll know what to expect during your treatment. Kissing
