Suspect of Lyme antibodies

I haven’t been feeling well. I started back in October with terrible headaches. Everyday. Body pains, fatigue, dizzy spells, sensitivity to light and sounds. I’m still feeling sick. Fainty feeling. I’ve been tested for Lyme two times. LYME ANTIBODIES W/ REFLEX TO CONFIRMATION. My first blood result is late November was .07. And this week I got tested again and I am .23. These antibodies are increasing. Could I possible be infected with Lyme? I went hiking many times in the moment of September. Suddenly I started with the headaches in the middle of October. I also have a high C Reactive Protein of 20.1 mg/L.

What follow up are your Drs suggesting ? Have you been prescribed antibiotics ? If not, they might be worth asking about.

I guess it has to be over .80 for it to be positive. So it’s still negative. Since it’s now at .22. I haven’t get antibiotics at all. But I’ve been feeling really bad and sick. I am suspicious for Lyme especially because I had .07 antibodies about a month ago and now I have .22.
