Lyme Disease Ab w/Reflex to Blot
PROVIDER INITIATED TEST - The Lyme Disease Antibody with Reflex to Blot test is a blood test used to evaluate exposure to Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacterium that causes Lyme disease. The test begins with an initial antibody screen. If the screening result is positive or equivocal, confirmatory testing (immunoblot/Western blot) is automatically performed to improve accuracy.
This two-step testing approach helps reduce false-positive results and provides more reliable confirmation of Lyme disease. The test is commonly ordered when symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, headaches, neurological symptoms, or a history of tick exposure are present.
