Find Clarity for Unexplained Symptoms with Our Lyme Disease Test
When persistent fatigue, joint pain, or neurological symptoms disrupt your life without clear explanation, it can feel overwhelming. Our Lyme Disease Immunoblot test provides the accurate diagnosis you need to move forward with confidence. Many South Africans suffer for months or even years without understanding the cause of their symptoms, but you don’t have to face this uncertainty alone.
Understanding the Lyme Disease Immunoblot Test
This advanced test detects specific antibodies (IgG and IgM) your body produces when fighting Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria, the cause of Lyme disease. Unlike standard tests that might miss early infections, our immunoblot method provides superior accuracy by identifying multiple protein bands, giving you and your doctor reliable evidence for diagnosis and treatment planning.
The test works by analysing your blood sample for immune responses that indicate current or past Lyme disease infection. This comprehensive approach ensures we don’t miss subtle infections that could develop into chronic health issues if left untreated.
Who Should Consider This Lyme Disease Test?
If you experience any of these symptoms, especially after potential tick exposure:
- Unexplained fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Joint pain or swelling that moves between joints
- Neurological symptoms like brain fog, memory issues, or tingling sensations
- Persistent headaches or neck stiffness
- Heart palpitations or dizziness
- Bull’s-eye rash (though many patients never develop this classic sign)
Particularly important for outdoor enthusiasts, farmers, gardeners, or anyone who spends time in grassy or wooded areas where ticks are common throughout South Africa.
Why Early Lyme Disease Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting an accurate diagnosis early can prevent Lyme disease from progressing to chronic stages that are much harder to treat. Early detection means:
- More effective treatment with shorter antibiotic courses
- Prevention of long-term joint, neurological, or cardiac complications
- Peace of mind and clarity about your health journey
- Ability to make informed decisions with your healthcare provider
- Potential to avoid years of unexplained suffering and medical uncertainty
Understanding Your Test Results
We know waiting for medical results can be stressful. Our comprehensive report clearly explains:
- IgM Results: Indicate recent infection (usually within weeks to months)
- IgG Results: Show longer-term immune response, suggesting established infection
- Pattern Analysis: Specific protein bands that confirm Lyme disease diagnosis
Your results will be presented in an easy-to-understand format with clear interpretation guidelines. We provide detailed information to help you and your doctor understand exactly what the findings mean for your health situation.
