Hi Alex. Were you ever treated?
Regarding the Western Blot, the CDC requires a large number of bands to show for it to be considered positive yet many people who have Lyme do not have this many bands show. Lyme doctors often focus on which bands show, some are specific for Lyme. It is important to be tested by a Lyme reputable lab such as IgeneX in Palo Alto, CA. They have more sensitive tests and list more bands on the Western Blot.
You already have a positive test, you need to be treated. You also should be tested for all the co-infections.
There are a couple of good Lyme doctors in NJ. Would you like a recommendation?
