Band 30 on western blot IgG

[colleenrn]

In my hours/days/weeks of frantic research, I read somewhere that band 30 on the western blot can indicate neurological involvement. I may have read it on another Lyme forum (it was not latitudes), but now I cannot find that info anywhere.

 

My son's IgG was positive for bands 23, 30, 41 and nothing showed on IgM, but blood was drawn only 8 days after tick pulled off.

 

Does anyone have any info on band 30 and neurological symptoms?

 

TIA.

Go to Helpful Threads and under #4 I've linked to three explanations of WB bands. 30 seems to be an antibody to OSPA outer protein, which is found on lyme spirochetes but not exclusively lyme.
