About Us
Mission
We aim to provide specialty diagnostics services that haven’t been available in your country so far and that are geared towards chronic conditions. Rare Diseases Labs is your one-stop-shop for such services since we don’t work with just one single lab – we offer a selection of tests from a number of leading American labs. All these labs are accredited and CLIA certified and have published their methodology in well-established medical journals.
SYMPTOMS & INDICATIONS
Often times patients accumulate huge volumes of medical history (ambuláns lap) with inaccurate or conflicting diagnoses or perhaps with a promising diagnosis only to find that the therapy isn’t working. Low-grade chronic infections can have a very confusing and misleading clinical picture not properly categorized by mainstream medicine. Here is a non-exhaustive list of indications suggesting that your health issues may have an infectious origin:
-
You have been diagnosed with Lyme but failed those treatments or relapsed soon after therapy.
-
You have very diffuse and seemingly unrelated symptoms and paid multiple visits to gastroenterlogists, rheumatologists and neurologists/psychiatrists to no avail
