What Does The Following Western Blot Test Result Indicate?

Hi. I have had symptoms of Lyme for a year, am on medical leave and have seen several doctors. I had a western blot test ran and all of the components were negative with exception to IgG P30, which was present abnormal. It also showed that I was positive for 5 of the borrelia-specific bands: 18, 23, 28, 30, 39, 41, 45, 58, 66, and 93. Finally it showed positive for 2 of the following bands: 23, 39, or 41. Can you explain to me what this might mean? The lab was Labcorp and from what I read, the tests aren t as reliable as others. Do I need to find a lyme doctor?
