lymes disease, doctors, and wormwood

[whrk]

so im going to see my doctor tomorrow and i'm going to ask him to test me for lyme's disease...thing is, i've taken wormwood and some other anti parasite kind of things...does anyone know if taking these things would affect a lymes test??

I don't know, Whrk, but... be sure to get the most recent test available in Europe - the Elisa is useless, you want a Western Blot type.

I'm glad to hear you're doing some natural anti-parasiticals and you sound a little better? - be careful with some of the herbs though, check to make sure they won't hurt your baby.

Hi WHRK,

You should call the IGENEX lab in California. They are IMO, the best lab because they do several kinds of tests. They'll send you a kit, you go to your local lab to draw the blood and they'll send it out to them.

They should also be able to let you know what will affect the testing.
