Hi Terri,
Honestly, I don’t remember for certain if the initial diagnosis was with a swab or not, so I would like to do the western blot just to be safe. How can I do that? I live in NJ/NYC but currently traveling and will be back home mid-August.
If I still come back positive, would the western blot results tell me anything about amount of viral shedding? What would those low index values suggest to you (after presumably having the virus for at least 4 years now)?
