Here is the site that I use to help interpret Western Blot bands:
www.oocities.org/hotsprings/oasis/6455/western-blot.txt You can go there to find supporting Pubmed articles showing what these bands represent.
An IgM result means that you have an active infection. It once was thought to mean an 'early' infection, but has since been revised. IgG means that the infection is at a later stage.
The more +'s you have beside a number, the stronger the reaction. But that is showing how your immune system is responding to the bacteria, not how much of a bacterial load you may have.
IND means indeterminate - not negative, but not quite strong enough to be "fully positive". But it means that you reacted on those bands and should be considered, especially when they are Lyme specific bands.
A "Lyme specific band" means specific for Borrelia Burgdorferi, sensu stricto - Lyme disease in the strictest sense. There are only
two on the over 300 known strains of Lyme that is considered Bb, ss. Borrelia burgdorferi and Borrelia mayonii. Nothing else will turn a Lyme specific band positive other than Lyme disease - - even though there are over 100 different strains of Borrelia in the US that cause human illness.
Bands 18 & 41 (whether in IgM or IgG) are indicative of the tail of the bacteria, which can cross react with other Spirochetal bacteria such as Relapsing Fever, Pintas and Yaws, and Syphilis.

www.reocities.com/HotSprings/Oasis/6455/western-blot.txt Bands 31 and 34 are both Lyme specific, so you have Lyme.
Doxy is good for a very early infection, but it causes the bacteria to go into it's cyst (round body) form fairly quick, so it's not a good choice for later infections. Minocycline would actually be better, from what I understand, if you choose to add in an abx, although it's not necessarily needed since you are using a good herbal protocol as well.
I would encourage you to continue on using Buhner's protocol, it's a pretty effective treatment for most people that use it. Do be sure you are detoxing well too!
