Guest guest Posted June 22, 2002 Report Share Posted June 22, 2002 Hello, I was about to say my lyme tests were useless, but was correctly told by that band 41 (which I was positive for on both tests, IgG and IgM) is critical . I was also positive (IgG) for 58 and 60. The research I did indicated that band 41 is usually the first to appear and read some horror stories of people who tested for 41 and went on to get very sick. I also read it is common for 41 to be positive in non-lyme cases. Can anyone give me more info on the relevance of band 41 (and maybe 58 and 60). I definitely already have a chronic illness (diagnosed as CFIDS) and got lots of tick bites. Kell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 22, 2002 Report Share Posted July 22, 2002 Hi, I once spoke on the phone with an LLMD who, unfortunately, has retired, but he was a very good LLMD. He said there is a whole subgroup of people w. Lyme who test positive ONLY on band 41. At least, he believed it was still Lyme, and would treat people as if they had LYme with band 41. However, his Inf. Disease doc colleagues would not treat them. (Big surprise). I'd like to give you his name, but he is retired and doesn't talk to patients anymore. (including me!) But I found that phone conversation comforting and interesting. I had only bands 41 and 58, and Dr. D. is treating me for Lyme. Later I found out I also had 2 strains of bartonella, wh. confirmed a tick bite!! Interesting. Sincerely, Marie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Thanks Elissa. And Marie. My positives were all only with one + each except Band 34. My husband had many more +++'s. Does that mean that his Lyme is worse? He functions much better than I do.From: "Elissa " <elissarachel@...>bird mites Sent: Tuesday, January 10, 2012 8:34:27 AMSubject: Re: Band 41 , Shows clear positive based upon Igenex and CDC criteria.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 I believe if more bands show the body is producing more antibodies, which is a good immune response.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Good point and that would make sense to me because he is much healthier in general. We both had done German homeopathy for a good long period where they look at your blood with dark field microscopy. The technician always said my husband's blood was much healthier than mine and it was true.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 I priced the dragon software at Fry's Electronics last week. Had to switch over to an ergonomic keyboard (again) because of the carpal tunnel. Dragon software for iMac $150. Marie, do you add a keyboard to the iPad? The program using a PC was much cheaper. Have contacted my hand surgeon and they are finding an appointment for me. I think some of my problem is coming from the neck so may need to have nerve conduction studies done again. The right hand after sx is maybe 25% better is all and doctor thinks it should have improved more. I agree. I thought I needed neck surgery but don't know if they will do it.From: "healinghope" <mfrreman@...>bird mites Sent: Tuesday, January 10, 2012 10:24:56 AMSubject: Re: Band 41Got a ipad2 the dragon is a app, free. > > > > > > > > I signed up to donate plasma, so we will see if I get a response. > > > > > > > > Band 41 > > > > > > > > http://stevensponauglewordpress.com/?p=703 > > > > http://www.publichealthalert.org/Articles/jamesschaller/western%20blots%20made%20easy.html > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > ------------------------------------ > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 I am so sorry Marie. This is so hard. I just got a call from the orthopedist's office and my appointment is set for tomorrow. At least maybe I can get another nerve conduction study done and some other work to see what is going on, esp at neck level too. It may, like your situation, have been the result of long term systemic damage from Lyme. I wish you could get some help on the farm Marie. I also have hip tendinitis going on which acts up something awful. Today I can barely walk and right leg gives out. Drs have said it is not my hips needing hip replacements. Yesterday was better. MRI said I have disc slippage in low back, but mainly age related osteoarthritis, I think again LD related. I don't want to be one of those people using a walker or cane!

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 My tos could have come from a bad accident years ago, and then years of repetitive stress at work.

That is one of my topics for the next visit with her! I finished 3 months on Rifampin and Doxy, but wonder if she wants me to switch to something else now. She had a plan for me, but I don't know where she will go next.From: "Aandraya" <aandraya@...>bird mites Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2012 7:43:54 PMSubject: Re: Re: Band 41 -Have you treated Babesia?AaOn Jan 17, 2012, at 12:41 PM, Goldstein@... wrote: I am so sorry Marie. This is so hard. I just got a call from the orthopedist's office and my appointment is set for tomorrow. At least maybe I can get another nerve conduction study done and some other work to see what is going on, esp at neck level too. It may, like your situation, have been the result of long term systemic damage from Lyme. I wish you could get some help on the farm Marie. I also have hip tendinitis going on which acts up something awful. Today I can barely walk and right leg gives out. Drs have said it is not my hips needing hip replacements. Yesterday was better. MRI said I have disc slippage in low back, but mainly age related osteoarthritis, I think again LD related. I don't want to be one of those people using a walker or cane!

Lyme has left me with systemic damage. Not much one can do, except survive. Difficult with the farm. My long time hand has left for college, deeply missed. The horses are gone and I will not get a cow this year.http://www.wellsphere.com/lyme-disease-article/repairing-the-damage-done-by-lyme-disease/1365391--- In bird mites , Goldstein@... wrote:>> A physical therapist at one time said I have TOS too, but not sure as no doctor diagnosed it. It has gotten bad. I'm feeling so disabled at this point and it is not Lyme any more, but other problems.
