The SELFCHECK Lyme Disease Test is a simple and reliable self-testing kit to detect anti-Borrelia immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies as an indicator of infection with Lyme disease.
Lyme disease is a bacterial infection spread to humans by ticks, which are tiny spider-like creatures often found in UK woodlands, parks and gardens.
It can take the body two to four weeks to produce detectable levels of antibodies after a bite. IgM antibodies are produced first, which increase to a maximum level after about six weeks, but then begin to decline.
If diagnosis and treatment is delayed, some people may develop more severe symptoms months or years after being infected.
This is a simple and reliable finger-prick blood test that provides you with a result in 10 minutes at home.

Before you decide to test
Before you decide to test
Before deciding to test, it is important that you understand the limitations of medical tests in general, as well as self-testing kits.
Make sure that you have considered what a result will mean to you before you take a test.
We also want you to be aware that no biomarker, even when checked by your hospital lab, is 100% perfect at diagnosing a specific medical condition. Because of this, a false positive result may cause unnecessary worry and further investigations, whilst a false negative result may give you peace of mind, when actually there may be an underlying condition that requires treatment.
Rather than purchasing a self-test kit, you may therefore wish to speak with your NHS GP first, who can arrange for tests if needed.

Important to know
All SELFCHECK branded tests are assembled by us in the UK at our ISO13485 certified manufacturing and R&D facility. Our medical tests are also CE certified according to UK and EU regulations, and registered with MHRA as self-testing devices.
Our tests are based on the same principles used by hospital labs, and provide reliable, meaningful results, but self-testing is not meant to replace established NHS healthcare pathways. Always consider what a positive or negative result will mean to you before testing, and be aware of the limitations of the test you are using.
If you have symptoms that concern you, always speak with your pharmacist or doctor.
