Just got these in the mail: 2 reactive bands Blood Lyme 23 kD IgG and Blood Lyme 41 kD IgG, Positive Blood Lyme Ab IgM, and Blood Lyme 23 kD IgM reactive and Blood Lyme 41 kD IgM reactive. Also for anaplasma phagocytophilum IgG <1;64 and IgM <1:20. My daughter was first diagnosed in July by family dr. and these tests were done in Aug. by an Infectious Disease Spec. who stated in the letter with the tests that he questions the diagnosis of Lyme. He did not believe she ever had Lyme. He is not Lyme Literate in my opinion. She must have had Lyme, and it also seems she had Ehrlichiosis. He also states that "half the US population without Lyme disease is reactive at the 41KD IgG band" She was given ammoxicillin for 1 month and doxycycline for one month. She does seem fine so far. Her last dose was on Thurs. It is now 5 days later. I hope we are done with Lyme, but have read enough books to wonder about a relapse. She still complains of slight headache, some back and knee pain. Her energy is back to normal (imagine non stop chatter that we haven't heard for 2 months).If anyone can help, I would be grateful. Thanks, Colleen |
"All I can say is that this has been the best place ever. It has been six to seven months since I joined, and I have learned so much. I now believe in myself and accept myself on a completely different level. The people on MDJunction has been so supportive and accepting that I have been able to adopt it into my personal life. That has reduced a lot of stress in my life. Thanks to all." (bunnyfly)
