Tickborne Diseases

Evaluates immune responses associated with organisms transmitted through tick exposure that may contribute to persistent, relapsing, or multi-system symptoms over time.

Why This Matters
Tickborne infections can be difficult to identify and may continue to influence health long after exposure, often presenting with fatigue, pain, neurological changes, or fluctuating symptoms.

How This Test Is Used
Helps clarify whether immune responses to tick-associated organisms may be contributing to ongoing health concerns.

When It’s Helpful
Helpful with known or suspected tick exposure, unexplained chronic symptoms, or incomplete answers from prior evaluations.

Coinfections

Assesses immune responses to multiple organisms that may coexist and compound symptom patterns, making diagnosis and recovery more complex.

Why This Matters
Overlapping infections can intensify symptoms, prolong recovery, and obscure primary contributors to illness.

How This Test Is Used
Supports broader infection mapping when multiple exposures or layered symptoms are suspected.

When It’s Helpful
Helpful when symptoms are multi-system, relapsing, or difficult to explain with a single cause.

Viral Infections

Evaluates immune responses to common and persistent viral exposures that may influence immune activation, energy levels, and recovery.

Why This Matters
Some viral infections can remain latent or intermittently reactive, contributing to fatigue, immune stress, or symptom flares.

How This Test Is Used
Provides insight into whether viral exposure may be influencing current health patterns.

When It’s Helpful
Helpful when fatigue, immune changes, or post-viral symptoms persist over time.

Opportunistic Infections

Assesses immune responses to organisms that may take advantage of immune stress or imbalance and contribute to systemic symptoms.

Why This Matters
Opportunistic organisms can affect digestion, immune balance, and inflammation, particularly during periods of stress or illness.

How This Test Is Used
Helps evaluate whether opportunistic organisms may be contributing to ongoing symptom patterns.

When It’s Helpful
Helpful with immune imbalance, recurrent symptoms, or unexplained digestive or systemic concerns.

Candida + IBS

Evaluates immune responses associated with Candida species and related gut-associated patterns that may influence digestion and systemic health.

Why This Matters
Candida overgrowth and gut-associated immune activation can contribute to bloating, discomfort, fatigue, and inflammatory symptoms.

How This Test Is Used
Provides targeted insight into yeast-related and gut-associated immune response patterns.

When It’s Helpful
Helpful when digestive symptoms, bloating, or recurring gut-related concerns persist.

Lyme + TBRF

Evaluates immune response patterns associated with Lyme-related organisms and relapsing fever–type Borrelia species transmitted by ticks.

Why This Matters
Tickborne infections can contribute to persistent or fluctuating symptoms, including fatigue, pain, neurological concerns, and inflammatory patterns that vary over time.

How This Test Is Used
Provides targeted insight into immune response patterns related to Lyme and relapsing fever organisms within a comprehensive tickborne assessment.

When It’s Helpful
Helpful when symptoms persist, recur, or fluctuate, especially following known or suspected tick exposure.

Built for Chronic & Relapsing Symptoms

Designed specifically for cases where symptoms persist, fluctuate, or recur despite prior evaluation or treatment.

Clarity Without Overdiagnosis

Provides meaningful context without overcalling causality, supporting informed decisions rather than reactive conclusions.

Consistency Across Time

Standardized methods enable reliable comparison when monitoring changes or reassessing infection involvement over time.

Results That Support Real Decisions

Reports emphasize interpretability and relevance, helping translate complex findings into practical next steps.

Gut Zoomer

Gut Zoomer

A neuroimmune panel that evaluates immune reactivity to brain, myelin, peripheral nerve, and blood–brain barrier antigens, helping clarify contributors to complex neurological symptoms.

Tickborne Diseases

Neural Zoomer

Neural Zoomer

Why it Matters

Digestive symptoms often have multiple overlapping contributors. Pairing Gut Zoomer with Candida & IBS testing helps clarify whether immune responses to fungal or infection-related organisms may be influencing gut inflammation, barrier integrity, or symptom persistence beyond microbiome imbalance alone.

Neurological and cognitive symptoms can be difficult to explain when standard testing is inconclusive. Pairing Neural Zoomer with Tickborne Disease testing helps clarify whether immune responses to tick-transmitted infections may be contributing to ongoing neurological stress, inflammation, or symptom persistence.

Key Insights

Gut Zoomer highlights current digestive function, microbiome balance, and immune activity in the gut. Candida & IBS testing adds context by identifying immune response patterns that may suggest fungal or infection-related contributors affecting gut health, tolerance, and recovery.

Neural Zoomer highlights current immune and inflammatory activity affecting brain and nervous system function. Tickborne Disease testing adds context by identifying immune response patterns associated with tick-transmitted organisms that may influence neurological symptoms, fatigue, pain, or cognitive changes.

What’s Measured

Gut Zoomer measures microbiome composition, digestion, barrier function, and gut immune activity. Candida & IBS testing evaluates immune response markers associated with Candida species and gut-related infectious patterns that may influence inflammation, sensitivity, and digestive symptoms.

Neural Zoomer measures immune activity related to brain tissue, neural signaling, and neuroinflammatory balance. Tickborne Disease testing evaluates immune response markers associated with Lyme-related organisms, relapsing fever bacteria, and related tickborne pathogens that may impact neurological and systemic health.

About the Test

What do infection tests measure?

Infection testing evaluates immune responses to specific groups of organisms that may influence health over time. These tests assess patterns associated with tickborne diseases, viral exposures, opportunistic organisms, Candida-related patterns, and overlapping coinfections. Rather than diagnosing active infection, infection testing focuses on immune response behavior, helping clarify whether past, recent, or ongoing exposures may be contributing to symptoms or immune stress.

What samples are required and how are they collected?

Infection testing typically uses a blood sample collected at your provider’s office or a partner draw site. The sample is processed in Vibrant’s CLIA- and CAP-accredited laboratory using validated methodologies designed to ensure consistency, reliability, and clear interpretation of immune response patterns across infection categories.

How are infection results used and who may benefit most?

Results are organized by infection category and immune response pattern to help determine whether infections may be contributing to ongoing health concerns. Infection testing may be especially helpful for individuals with persistent or fluctuating symptoms, complex or overlapping health histories, post-exposure concerns, or incomplete answers from prior testing. Findings provide focused insight that supports more informed conversations about next steps.

Health Insights

What kinds of patterns can infection testing highlight?

Infection testing highlights immune response patterns that may reflect current, recent, or historical exposure to specific organisms. Seeing these patterns together can help differentiate potential infection-related contributors from downstream inflammation, immune activation, or secondary effects—particularly in cases where symptoms are chronic, relapsing, or difficult to explain.

How does infection insight relate to everyday symptoms?

Infections can influence symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, pain, digestive discomfort, or immune instability in subtle or overlapping ways. Infection testing does not diagnose disease, but it can help clarify whether immune responses to certain organisms may be influencing how symptoms present, fluctuate, or respond to lifestyle changes or prior interventions.

Ordering

How do I order infection testing and what should I expect?

Infection testing is ordered by a licensed healthcare provider. After sample collection, results are typically available within about one week. Your provider will review the findings with you, explain how infection-related insight fits into your overall health picture, and help determine whether additional evaluation, monitoring, or next steps may be appropriate.
