“A negative test doesn’t mean it’s not Lyme. It just means you may need a better test — or a deeper way of listening to the body.”

Why Diagnosis Is So Difficult

Many individuals suffering from chronic Lyme are misdiagnosed for years — or told their symptoms are “all in their head.” One major reason is the limitations of conventional Lyme testing.

Here’s the truth: no single test can definitively rule out Lyme, especially in late-stage or chronic cases. The Borrelia bacteria is a stealth pathogen — it can change form, hide in tissues, suppress immune function, and even avoid antibody detection altogether.

That’s why it’s important to consider a combination of testing strategies — including both biomedical and energetic approaches — to get the clearest picture of what’s happening in your body.

🧪 Types of Lyme Testing

1. Standard Antibody Testing (CDC Two-Tier Testing)

• The conventional method uses an ELISA test, followed by a Western Blot if positive.

• These tests only detect antibodies, which your body may not produce if your immune system is suppressed.

• Sensitivity drops significantly in later stages of illness.

2. Advanced Lab Testing (Specialty Lyme Labs)

More accurate than standard tests, these labs use advanced methods like:

• Immunoblot (more sensitive version of Western Blot)

• PCR (detects DNA from the bacteria)

• Culture-based testing (detects live organisms)

✅ Trusted labs include:

• IGeneX (U.S.)

• Galaxy Diagnostics (U.S.)

• ArminLabs (Germany)

• DNA Connexions (DNA-based urine test)

These labs can also test for co-infections like Babesia, Bartonella, Ehrlichia, and more — which are often overlooked.

3. Energetic / Bioresonance Testing

Energetic testing, also known as bioresonance or frequency-based testing, evaluates how your body responds to specific vibrational frequencies linked to Lyme and related pathogens.

This form of testing:

• Scans for energetic imbalances or stress patterns in organ systems

• May detect Borrelia, co-infections, toxins, and system overload

• Offers a non-invasive way to uncover root issues often missed by traditional labs

• Helps guide personalized healing protocols, including detox, mineral support, and emotional healing

Many holistic and integrative practitioners use energetic testing alongside lab results to confirm patterns and tailor treatments.
