Babesia Fish Test positive

My Igenex labs came in and my LLMD wanted to see me asap.

The results were negative: For IGM Everything negative except band 41 IND and 66 +

For IGG they were all negative with band 41++ . So I got nothin.

The Babesia Fish test came back positive. They have addded Paracidin and in two weeks Parastat. Also, Biaxin 125 mg one every other day.

Any words of wisdom?

I am just like you I tested negative for the lyme testing, and only have the Babesia Anti-body and FISH positive.

All other co-infections are negative too, lab-wise. I am sure its possible that we only have Babesia, yet who knows there's just not enough information and research to rule it out.


Mepron/ Malarone with an antibiotic is the usual treatment, similar to that of malaria.


May I ask what your major symptoms are? I think you are the only person besides me that has the Babesia positive so far, since most have Lyme as the main infection.


Do you have the Duncani or Microti strain of Babesia? Did you get only the FISH test done or did you also have the anti-bodies done as well?
