TickBorne Panel

“This is my favorite Tickborne test. It tests for many species of Borrelia that can create Lyme-like illness, as well as major bacterial and viral co-infections occurring with Lyme. For each infection it evaluates, it runs both an ImmunoWestern Blot (similar to a Western Blot but more advanced) and PCR tests. Its Borrelia burgdorferi Western Blot includes the traditional bands as well as additional bands that recent research has identified as the most accurate. The total cost is less than what most accurate labs charge for Borrelia burgdorferi evaluations alone. Its cost and high accuracy testing make it like no other test.” – Dr. Chelsea Azarcon

Lyme disease and other tickborne infections are complex diseases that require multidimensional treatments of the whole person, rather than just the infection. Infectious agents can cause a number of systemic and inflammatory symptoms and co-morbid conditions through depletion of the body’s natural antioxidant and immune defenses. Treating the infection is the first step in most cases, but supporting the body’s ability to detoxify and excrete waste and toxins is also critical to providing patients with a foundation on which to fully recover and heal, eventually.

Symptoms associated with tick borne illnesses can include:
