Can someone help me understand my igenix results.

I only tested positive for band 41, and 58.

My LLMD says this is common if someones immune system is taxed from being ill.

IGM and CDC both negative.

Bands 18 & 41 (whether in IgM or IgG) are indicative of the tail of the bacteria, which can cross react with other Spirochetal bacteria such as Relapsing Fever, Pintas and Yaws, and Syphilis.

Band 58 is thought to be from Borrelia Afzelii, which is a European strain of Lyme.

I found this blog post really helpful for understanding band 41. http://lymemd.blogspot.com/2008/09/all-i-got-was-41band.html
Band 41 was the only band active with me. The only proof for me is in the pudding of treatment. A long list of symptoms - treatment for lyme, then co-infections and now a very short list of symptoms and I feel like I am getting my life back. Good for you for have an LLMD! Keep asking questions and welcome to the community Yankee..not sure I ever said that.

Thanks for the response.

I do get muscle aches, joint aches and a fever that comes and goes (low grade). I could of got relapsing fever from a tick bite?

Fairly certain I don't have syphillis.

Preferred treatment plan for this?

I need to get my life back to take care of my baby daughter. :(

Are you wanting to see LLMD for treatment?

Or...do an herbal protocol on your own?

I also only had band 41 and my doctors are STILL unsure if i have lyme (ive seen 3). Ive tested positive for bartonella so im starting to treat that but may have to add lyme treatments later if symptoms still persist
