Lyme Disease Antibody IgM Test In Pune For Early Lyme Disease Assessment
The Lyme Disease Antibody IgM Test is a blood test used to detect early immune response to Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacterium associated with Lyme disease. IgM antibodies may appear in the initial weeks after infection and can support clinical assessment when recent exposure is suspected.
This test may be considered in patients with symptoms such as fever, fatigue, headache, joint pain, muscle aches, or rash after possible tick exposure. Although Lyme disease is uncommon in India, testing may still be considered in selected clinical situations based on travel history, exposure history, symptoms, and specialist advice.
