pandakid11 Posted July 31, 2012 Report Posted July 31, 2012 CD57/CD3/CD8 CD57/CD3 CD57/CD8 CD57+ Can someone explain what levels should be and how to interpret? Thanks TIM
mdmom Posted July 31, 2012 Report Posted July 31, 2012 Which lab did the test? Only LabCorp and one another lab (cannot remember the name but someone on here will) do the test correctly. You should have a value on the that reads "Abs. CD8-CD57+ Lymphs" . This is the number you are looking for. The acceptable range is 60-360, although a lot of Lyme docs say it shouldn't be below 100. We erroneously had it done through Quest and they don't list the results the way a Lyme doc wants them to read.
MichaelTampa Posted July 31, 2012 Report Posted July 31, 2012 This looks a lot like it is the wrong test, if you were looking for the CD57 used related to chronic lyme disease. Is this from something already ordered? What lab is it from?
pandakid11 Posted July 31, 2012 Author Report Posted July 31, 2012 HI That is the way it reads. I think it was LabCorp. Nothing states lymphs. Which lab did the test? Only LabCorp and one another lab (cannot remember the name but someone on here will) do the test correctly. You should have a value on the that reads "Abs. CD8-CD57+ Lymphs" . This is the number you are looking for. The acceptable range is 60-360, although a lot of Lyme docs say it shouldn't be below 100.
