Lyme Test (IgG/IgM)
Lyme disease is caused by the Borrelia bacteria and is primarily transmitted through tick bites. It can lead to a range of symptoms, including fever, headache, fatigue, joint pain, and a characteristic skin rash called erythema migrans. The Lyme IgG/IgM Rapid Test detects early and past infections by analyzing for IgM and IgG antibodies in blood, offering rapid, reliable results.
Many customers choose to also order a CRP Test, a rapid test that measures the level of C-reactive protein, an indicator of inflammation in the body. This combination can provide a more comprehensive overview of inflammatory responses, particularly useful in cases where Lyme disease symptoms are present.
GetTested's Lyme IgG/IgM Rapid Test
Discovering Lyme Disease and Its Symptoms
Ticks often carry and transmit Lyme disease, a condition resulting from the Borrelia bacteria. Common symptoms include fever, fatigue, joint pain, and a noticeable skin rash called erythema migrans. Detecting Lyme disease early plays a critical role in effective treatment and halting its advance.
The Role of IgG and IgM in Lyme Disease Detection
The Lyme IgG/IgM Rapid Test from GetTested specifically looks for both IgG and IgM antibodies to Borrelia. The body typically produces IgM antibodies first, within weeks of infection, indicating recent or ongoing Lyme disease. These antibodies generally have a short lifespan. However, in long-lasting infections like Lyme disease, IgM levels can stay elevated for an extended period. In contrast, IgG antibodies develop later and remain for months or years after clearing the infection, signaling past exposure.
Advantages of the Rapid Test
This rapid test is designed for the detection of Lyme disease using a small blood sample. The test is simple to perform, and results are available within 10 minutes.

Used this after my son had a tick bite. The instructions were clear and we had results back in just a few days.
I didn’t want to wait weeks for an appointment just to ask for a test. This made it easy to take control and get clear answers.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

Absolutely perfect, results came after few days and finally after a lots of times visited GP, we finally know why my son has eczema - he is allergy to carrot. Thanks a lot.
