Hello. I am looking for more info about the cd57. The only diseases that I can find googling that cause a low cd57 are HIV and Lyme's. There is a post here from a very active member/moderator that says there can be other causes for a low cd57. Can anyone direct me to more info (other than for Lyme's and HIV)? Sorry for my ignorance. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Catduck,

When I originally wrote that post, and said, "other causes", I meant HIV. I don't post about the "HIV" part anymore because I once made someone really scared that had just gotten their CD57 results back. But, so far, those two diseases are the only two listed to cause a low NK Striker Panel (CD57) result.

I just wanna back CajunGrl up. She is correct. I did a lot of research on the CD-57, as this was the first blood test ordered by my LLMD.
