Back again, Retest w/IgX, Pregnancy-related, Help Please

Hi friends,

I've been gone a long time (2+ years) with no lyme symptoms, hooray . But due to recent strange symptoms I have had a re-test and would greatly appreciate your help interpreting the results below. Symptoms are in the final paragraph--trigger warning due to some sad sensitive info.

Here are my test results from Stonybrook Labs in October 2014 after a tick bite in Hawai'i in 1984:
10.2014: CDC IgM: 23+ 41+ (POSITIVE by CDC standards)

Here are my test results from IgeneX in November 2014 and the new re-test results in November 2018:
11.2014: IGX IgM: 23+ 39+ 41++ 58+ 83/93+ 31IND (CDC & IgeneX POSITIVE)
11.2018: IGX IgM: 23IND 31- 39- 41IND 93- (CDC & IGX NEGATIVE)

11.2014: IGX IgG: 41+ 58++ 31IND (IGX POSITIVE)
11.2018: IGX IgG: 18- 23+ 28++ 30- 31+ 34- 39IND 41+ 45- 58- 66- 93- (IGX POSITIVE, CDC NEGATIVE)

My questions are:
1) Does it make sense to have done a re-test? Or, "once positive, always positive..."?
2) What happened to the other bands on the IgM, such as 58? I had that before, it let me know I had the European strain of lyme, Borrelia Afzelii. It's now gone from the IgM test page but was tested for on the IgG result page.
3) And why/how am I showing a new antibody of 28 on the IgG test? Have the tests gotten more sensitive?
4) Is Traveler still here? <3

<Trigger warning for following sad info>
I wanted to re-test because I recently was pregnant and something didn't feel quite right. Although the chromosomal tests came back great and baby was developing perfectly, something felt strange. The first 10 weeks I had really bad all-day morning sickness, then two weeks of feeling good, which felt normal since this is when morning sickness usually subsides. But all the while my stomach actually hurt/felt tender when I walked and I gained a pound a week--too much too fast. I then took a long plane ride; after a few days there I woke up out of my sleep with a raging headache and feeling like I got hit by a truck. I flew home when that trip was over but that headache lasted for one month straight, accompanied by very low blood pressure (90s/60s for a month, then 80s over 50s for the last week of pregnancy), dizziness, extreme fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath. My obstetrician chalked it up to regular pregnancy so I instead went several times to my primary care physician with my complaints. She listened when I told her that my symptoms felt exactly like when I was being treated for Lyme disease. (Although I am back in Hawai'i and don't know of any LLMDs, I feel lucky with this PCP because she is open-minded, natural-health-leaning, and open to learn about Lyme.) She signed off on my blood work to be re-done at IgeneX and was willing to treat me during pregnancy if the lyme tests came back positive *and if my old LLMD would consult with her by phone to advise on treatment. Unfortunately, I lost the baby halfway through the pregnancy. There are no answers so far as to why this happened so I am wondering if Lyme could be the culprit. I also recently found out that I have a common MTHFR mutation as well as a PAI-1 mutation; together, these blood clotting issues often combine to lead to late losses in pregnancy. I am posting this so I can begin to determine if I need to treat lyme again or if I should move ahead with treating the mutations before trying to have another healthy full-term pregnancy. Thanks so much for any help. ~Maui

Thanks so much for your kind words, Girlie. I won't be able to travel to NYC to see my LLMD but will try for a phone consult.

My current symptoms have lessened greatly. Over the past month my blood pressure has slowly increased to about 112/72, the constant dizziness is mostly gone, and the exhaustion has lifted.

What is still here is: dizziness upon standing, mild facial twitching for the past month, waking up between 1-3 am & staying up till morning after just a few hours of sleep, some headaches, and frequent urination (but not urgent urination as in my lyme past). Also, have had leg muscles just waste away over the last few years (but also stopped exercising due to stressful consuming work schedule). And I just had a neck ultrasound for a large lump in my neck--turned out to be an enlarged lymph node, the tech asked if I'd been sick recently. So, not absolutely symptom-free but also not at death's door like I felt in those final weeks of the pregnancy.

The IgG bands turning more positive is interesting to me--that after no diagnosis for 30 years of infection many of my IgG bands were INDeterminate, but now several years after abx treatment a few more show up as positive...
