Bloods in one of the shitty states
ad
So I live in one of the great states in NE US that doesn't allow you to order labs online and have them drawn from a lab in my state. I am aware of the option of using a lab in a surrounding state. But with my work schedule it's damn near impossible to make that work. Anyone aware of any loopholes to have it done in state? I know it's alot to ask but I've done a bunch of research and just finding deadends.

If you figure this out please let me know. Every time I go to order bloods I’m just waiting for my state to show up on the list since most of the states around me are. Would be nice to have a backup for on-cycle if that ever happens here.
Good luck brother
I feel your pain bro, we're in the same boat. During cycle, if I feel something is wrong I usually go to one of those anti - aging clinics. The often have deals and get basic test, estro checked (often for as low as $25), but it's not a complete panel. For that you have to travel which is a bitch. After the pct I go see my doc for regular checkups and just tell him that I've been feeling a little down and tired (I'm closer to 40 now) and if he could check my hormone panel. I'm sure he knows the deal, but I think as long as he get's paid by insurance he doesn't give a fuck. On cycle I don't do it to avoid raising any flags.
Yeah I'm running tren right now so just want to check lipids, prolactin, e2 and test just to see where I'm at. I have a good feeling for my body and the way compounds react with me, it would just be nice to see actual numbers rather than go by feel.
FR sent. A couple of questions if you don't mind. Thanks bro.
Heaze2016Most Dr's now have a website,with a customer portal to check med records etc etc, and you can order the labs yourself, atleast the Dr's office I go to does and I'am in NE also in 1 of those shitty states.
Drive out of state.
Not sure what where you are but I live in one that is very limited as well. Check this out and see if it would work in your location.

Nope I'm shit outta luck with that
I'm in one of those states. I couldn't find a way around asking my GP so I drove to the nearest state and drew blood there, no sense risking having a test result come back that high on cycle to my insurance company.
Would it be a violation of HIPA if they told them?
Dunno. But I don't trust the insurance companies at all with that info. They have denied insurance to qualified customers that have babies born with leukemia, I'm pretty sure if they wanted to go back and cite my blood test as a reason to not cover a surgery in the future, I wouldn't put it pass them at all.
So I ordered from a site and drove to the next state. I used my passport since it doesn't have an addy, good luck brother.
Yeah call your doctor and say I need blood drawn so help me please. If he doesn't help get new doctor. Not ok
Yeah well I walked away from my last doc because of that. But I'm just unsure of what could happen with my insurance if my test levels are through the roof. Can they deny me because of shit like that or is it conspiracy lol.
You tell your doctor what you want not the other way around you are paying him. Not paying him to tell you what he wants. If he or she doesn't like it then get another doctor. I had 3 different doctors in 2017 cause I'm a paying customer not no welfare punk they tend to us not us to them
Some Doctors are the same here , you ask them to do bloods and they'll say " we'll only do certain blood tests if we think their necessary ". If I'm paying them they should test whatever I want them to test , its a pain in the ass .
Yeah they fucking suck I had an endo prescribing me trt who wouldn't test my E2 even tho I told her I had sensitive nipples. She was a stupid cunt and she used trt as a way to manipulate me to do what she wanted. She was shocked when I told her I'm done and walked out the door
I would say most of them lol
