With band 31 pos and Band 34 IND, LLMD's usually use IND as a positive just in case and treat with it. Those 2 bands plus band 25 are the MOST indicative of Lyme, from my research, and I'd say if ALL you're looking at is test results, you should consider it positive. However, that said, you need to remember that Lyme is a clinical diagnosis, meaning that what should be taken into account well before tests is your symptoms, your physical exam, and your history. Added in with medical tests, that is what determines if you have Lyme, but it's not dependent upon Lyme tests and Lyme tests only. A good LLMD should treat you regardless, given what you'd said and your tests. Hope that helps some. *hugs* jen  Just because it's impossible doesn't mean it can't happen.
I'm not a doc, so anything I say is my opinion only. Nothing I say is meant as offense, I offer what I can as help. I believe in educating myself on all my medical issues and being my own advocate, for no one else with do that on my behalf. I recommend we all do the same!
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Perhaps I truly am insane for expecting these docs to listen to me when I say the same things repeatedly to no avail? LOL. I am tired of seeking out new docs and getting the same result time and again...Forgive me if I seem bitter some days.
Something has changed within me/Something is not the same/I'm through with playing by/The rules of someone else's game/Too late for second-guessing/Too late to go back to sleep/It's time to trust my instincts/Close my eyes and leap...I'm through accepting limits/Cuz someone says they're so/Some things I can not change/But till I try I'll never know/Too long I've been afraid of/Losing love I guess I lost/Well if that's love/It comes at much too high a cost/I'd sooner buy Defying Gravity/Kiss me good-bye I'm Defying Gravity/I think I'll try Defying Gravity/And you won't bring me down...
