ok, i just came back from the doctor, i asked about the results of the previous tests and unfortunately he said he was never given specific results, just that the two previous tests results were: 109 in May, and then 40 in June, with anything over 18 deemed to be a positive result.

Looking at the receipt the test ordered was just called: Borrelia burgdorferi so im at a bit of a loss as to what test it was exactly...

Having finished the 3 week course of Doxy now, my next instructions are to wait 3 weeks and then be tested again. We will go from there, i guess.

Hmmmm very interesting. I'm not sure what test you took either. And it's interesting that your doctor is retesting. This isn't a typical approach for a conventional medicine doctor.

yeah i must admit im at a bit of a loss about it all.

My doctor is cool though, he is willing to listen to my suggestions and on asking to be referred to a Lyme Specialist he said he wasnt aware of any but maybe one of the neighboring Neurologists would so. So, in 3 weeks i will be retested and then i will go see the Neuro instead who may or may not send me over to an LLMD.

All sounds very straightforward...
