I'm now also positive for Bartonella! This comes as no surprise to me, I've been trying to convince my doctor to treat Bart based off clinical symptoms since I started treatment with him recently. However, he will only treat co-infections based off clinical testing (don't worry, I will be getting a new doctor soon). However, the best part of this story, is that the doctor actually reviewed my co-infection reporting from IGENEX and said everything was negative. Well, I asked for a copy of my lab and my Bartonella IgG was 40. IGENEX states "IgG <40 should be considered negative. However,IgG 40 to 160 may or may not indicate active infection." You know, considering how difficult it is to get laboratory results for co-infections, you think that might have been worth some significance. *Rant over* Post edited by: renguin22, at: 04/25/2012 04:13 AM |
