I don't know about how common it is, but my understanding is that tests for Lyme are fairly unreliable, leading to many people self-diagnosing themselves with Lyme, kind of like we're seeing now with 'long covid'.

What symptoms you'll have, when you'll have them, if you had it a long time ago, if you are infected but haven't produced the antibodies yet... these are things we can't tell just from the presence/absence of antibodies.
