Igenex Full Results came in - No Help from them (borderline scam?)

I am going to see KDM in Reno and read that he does diagnose lyme disease in a growing number of his patients. I wonder which lab he uses and if its anymore reliable than the IGeneX testing.

I journeyed to Reno briefly to check out a treatment center there. They put your blood on a slide then project it on a big screen TV. They show you the lyme spirochetes and dots which they call cysts.

The place was very questionable and did some strange treatments. I don't think it is the same place you are referring to though...

This is a scam. That's not how Lyme is diagnosed. You are not looking at what they say you are looking at.
