yOUR PATIENT TESTED POSITIVE. NOW WHAT?
A positive test result for a tick-borne illness often leads to many questions about what to do next. What treatments to use? Pharmaceuticals or natural remedies? How to treat Lyme versus the co-infections? Should treatments differ for a PCR positive versus a serology positive? What types of medications can a patient handle based on age and physical condition? And many more.
Thankfully, there are many resources and private organizations that doctors can utilize to improve their understanding of how to treat tick-borne illnesses. IGeneX has published several blog posts on treatments. Also, there are a few companies IGeneX recommends for natural remedies (listed below). These companies offer collaboration with on-staff integrative physicians to assist you in building comprehensive patient protocols. We encourage you to reach out them.
