Her Pedi said he believes her IGM test false positive because she probably had mono and that mono elevated the tiers. She has never had mono to my knowledge. Can Mono elevate band 23? I suggested he do an EB test before saying its false neg. He believes that if only 2 cases of in utero or breast milk transmission has been reported, then our case is too rare. However, maybe it's rare BECAUSE DR like him are not reporting cases like mine. If my case was reported, then the numbers would rise. How many other cases like mine are not being reported? He also believes that it is so rare that we both tested positive for the same bands that her test must be false positive. It's too unlikely that we would both have the same bands show up. I believe that since it was transmitted in utero or breast milk that it would be common sense that we in fact do have the same positive bands since we have the same strain of lyme infection. He believes that since her IGM is positive that she and I were bit by two different ticks which are unlikely. I explain I agree us getting bit by two different ticks is unlikely and can be easily explained because she got the virus in utero or breast milk. Also that our IGM is positive because of chronic persistent re infection. I sited Dr Jones. Is this legal? Can he get away with not reporting this to the cdc? However, he does want to treat her not lymes with Amoxicillin for ten days. I want him to follow the ILADS guidelines. How do I do this? I am seeking other DR people have PM me with. Thanks!
