I would definitely say you and your husband should be retested for Lyme through a specialized lab. I have suffered a lot neurological damage over the last six years and would hope that others will be more fortunate to find it sooner:) welcome again.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Yes, when a serious chronic illness is suspected like MS, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Lupus, Fibromyalgia or even an illness like ALS, a specialized Lyme test should be done. A test should be done by a specialized lab such as Igenex. You are in the UK and I know that question about the blood came up yesterday with I believe. I would have to find out for you who could run a specialized test for you or one of the other members in the group might know already. Also, I had a lot of root canals performed when I was 19 years old because of a congenital birth defect where I was missing my upper canine teeth and Lyme bacteria loves to live in the mouth so I am having surgery to remove all the old root canals. I am mentioning this because often times the mouth is overlooked when someone is chronically ill and if you have any dental issues in your mouth this would be an impediment to successful Lyme treatment. I wish I had caught my Lyme disease sooner, instead I have suffered for five and a half years, but all I can do is get treated and have faith that I will get better and while I am at it help others by sharing what I have gone through:) Best, > Hi Stacey > Should everyone be tested for lyme ?
