Lyme disease is an epidemic. It affects thousands of individuals. Classic Borrelia Burgdorfi is not the only culprit. There are many other Borrelia species. Dr. Fratellone is an expert regarding Lyme Disease and how to attack it.
- Most Lyme disease tests are designed to detect antibodies made by the body in response to infection.
- Antibodies can take several weeks to develop, so patients may test negative if infected only recently.
- Antibodies normally persist in the blood for months or even years after the infection is gone; therefore, the test cannot be used to determine cure.
- Infection with other diseases, including some tickborne diseases, or some viral, bacterial, or autoimmune diseases, can result in false positive test results.
- Some tests give results for two types of antibody, IgM and IgG. Positive IgM results should be disregarded if the patient has been ill for more than 30 days.
Dr. Fratellone is a Cardilogist and has fifteen (15) years of beekeeping and eight (8) years as an Apitherapist.
