Lyme ELISA

What Does This Test Check?

This test uses the ELISA method to check for antibodies to the bacteria that cause Lyme disease, usually caught from a tick bite. The result indicates whether you have been exposed to the infection.

Medichecks is the sole provider listed, offering the Lyme ELISA test for £99. As the only option on this page, there is nothing else to compare.

A positive antibody result may indicate past or present Lyme exposure, but it does not confirm an active infection on its own and timing affects accuracy. Antibodies take weeks to develop, so a test within days of a bite can be negative, and clinical diagnosis matters; discuss your symptoms and the result with your GP.
