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.
