A member asked:

What do you suggest if my doctor ordered a routine lab req for blood work. will it detect lyme disease?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: We don't look for the routinely. Actually, there's some dispute as to just how sensitive the usual Lyme serologies are. If you're concerned that you may be a Lyme patient, talk about this with your physician.
