Lyme Disease

Very hard to tell even in people who already knew they had it before seems people can experience long term Lyme disease and not get proper diagnosis because the doctors think it “went away”

The test your Dr will do is typically the Western Blot which is a blood test that only checks for 4 strains and there is over 300 stains of Lymes disease. I tested for it 3 times and was negative. Then I got the expensive an Jose lab that is the only one I know of that tests for every strain and I had 4 strains of Lyme.
