I have had symptoms over the years including numbness, tingling, now muscle spasms, etc, ad mris, had many tests, nothing shows up except celiac disease.

I did go to a clinic in fon du lac 7 years ago and they said I may have it, put me on an antibiotic and no change. So now I went to a new clinic in my area and she said I may have it again. I am not sure how to read the numbers, but I am trying the antibiotic again.

How do you know if you really have it, I am confused, and any doc recommendations in milwaukee ozaukee?

cd57 count

cd57 3
L 55

I hope this makes sense to someone

I had a hard time getting this explained to or understanding anything that was said

I don't really knowmuch about the CD57 reading and frankly my LLMD does not recommend the test.

I am from WI and my LLMD does travel to milwaukee (from the North) for patients. She is very good but is heavy on the antibios regime.

Wondering how long you were on antibios and which ones? You may have coinfections also. She can work this all out.

If interested I can give you her contact info, just email me if interested.

Best of luck to you

My LLMD looks at cd57 count as well as lots of other clues via blood tests and most importantly, symptoms/history/previous medical records.

He treats with appropriate antibiotics based on confirmed coinfections and suspected (coinfection tests are just as faulty as Lyme test) and also treats with appropriate symplements, probiotics and antivirals.

He is in Milwaukee County but does not accept health insurance since health insurance does not cover adequate diagnosis (takes much longer than a 10-minute doc consultation) or treatment of Lyme Disease at this time. They do print out detailed bills you can submit to insurance on your own.
