LYME DISEASE TESTING

Lyme Disease Testing

Published on 10 October, 2022

Lyme Disease is an infectious disease transmitted by bacteria called Borrelia burgdorferi. It is also known as Lyme Borreliosis.

One sign of infection that sometimes occurs is a gradually expanding rash known as an “EM rash” (Erythema Migrans), which may appear 5 – 7 days after a tick bite, or sometimes as long as 7 – 10 weeks later.

Ticks can transmit more than one type of infection, known as Lyme Disease co-infections.

TESTING

AONM (the Academy of Nutritional Medicine) is affiliated with ArminLabs in Germany, the foremost laboratory in Europe for Lyme Disease and Co-infection Testing.

If you have reason to suspect that you may be suffering the effects of Lyme Disease, please complete the online screening form on the aonm website and send it to us at info@aonm.org

(Testing requires giving a blood sample – this has to be done by a qualified practitioner or phlebotomist who will draw the blood and work with you to send the blood sample to our laboratory.)

MIGHT I HAVE LYME DISEASE?

A clinical diagnosis is the only way to determine if you are suffering from Lyme Disease and/or co-infections. Testing is done so that a health practitioner can match physical observation with test results, and so determine the best way forward.  AONM can provide testing through our partner laboratory ArminLabs.
