About Lyme Disease Antibody Test | IgG, IgM Lab Testing in Lancaster
Lyme disease antibody testing is a serological method used to evaluate a person's immune response to Borrelia burgdorferi.
The test measures IgG and IgM antibodies in a blood sample. IgM antibodies typically rise early after infection, while IgG antibodies tend to develop later and can persist for months or years.
Because antibody production takes time, results depend on the interval between potential exposure and specimen collection. A negative result does not always rule out infection, particularly in the early weeks.
Healthcare providers interpret antibody results alongside symptoms, exposure history, and other clinical findings. In some cases, a two-step testing approach is used to confirm initial reactive results.
