ELISA.

I think its fair to say that the lab lyme tests are at best mediocre and maybe worse.

Most Lyme tests are practically worthless. Hospitals and other facilities are require to use FDA approved test kits, and those kits only test for one or two variations of Lyme. Best to have a blood sample sent to IGeneX for reliable results.
