Default Lyme?

I'm so sorry that your daughter is ill, I know how horrible it is to see your child suffer.

4 years ago my daughter was mis-diagnosed with "Fibro/CFS", After doing a lot of research, I realized that Fibro/CFS is really a diagnosis of exclusion, which the doctors label those who they cannot find actual diagnoses for.

My daughter ended up testing positive for Lyme disease and Babesiosis- which are tick borne infections. She has done well with treatment, long term courses of antibiotics.

Along our journey, we have learned that the routine lab tests used for Lyme disease are not 100% accurate, if is wise to send out for more specific testing at one of the following labs:

Igenex-*
Clongen Lab
Stonybrook Lab
