inexpensive Bloodwork - How to Get It WITHOUT Insurance

[Jury101b]

Getting bloodwork done, whether it be on-cycle or post-cycle, is always strongly recommended when running any type of AAS cycle. However, many people often neglect to do this based on cost, and the fact that a doctor visit is usually required.

Here is how to get bloodwork done very cheaply by scheduling your blood panel on-line, without going to the doctor, and without the need for medical insurance. The testing will be done by Labcorp, so as long as you can get to a Labcorp office, you can use this option. There is a trick to getting this done cheaply, so read on.

***Please note that this option will not work in NY, NJ, or RI due to state medical billing laws***

"Here is the trick. Go to privatemdlabs.com and select the hormone panel for females. This test comes with a CMP (liver, kidney values and more), CBC (blood counts), total Testosterone, total Estrogen, LH and FSH.

I have done this a few times before and all your reference ranges come back based on males once you enter in all the info that the lab co wants.

Also use the discount code ______ (search internet for current discount codes, can usually find a 15% off). Total should come to roughly 50 dollars.

They use labcorp so just select a location nearest you. You can also make an appointment to have blood drawn, which many people don't know. Just go to their website (labcorp) to do so after you paid for the bloodwork.

If you go on a weekday (except friday) you will have your results emailed to you the next day most likely as they are that fast as effff!!!!

The only thing missing is a lipid profile, which you could add on if you so choose.

So STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR NOT GETTING BLOODWORK DONE!!!!!!!!! You most likely won't be able to beat this price even if you do have insurance!!!!

So take advantage of the loophole I found as the male hormonal panel costs about 150 dollars!!!!!"

For $50 lousy bucks, you can get everything you'd want tested after a cycle (except lipids, which as mentioned can be added for $47.99 retail, before discounts): liver and kidney function, HPTA, estrogen, etc.

I have not used this service myself, unfortunately, as I live in NY. However, a well-known AM member has and will weigh in with his experience soon.

So no more excuses, no more guessing at problems during PCT, no more self-medicating without medical confirmation of an issue; if you are mature enough to cycle, then be mature enough to protect your health.

I did not write this, but after reading about it, I felt this should be put up in our new anabolics forum.

This is what I just used guys its awesome.

Pay online, print out a piece of paper, show up at the nearest labcorp location (there were 3 in my town), give them the paper, get blood drawn. They emailed me my results 24 hours later.

AWESOME.

50 bucks for blood work. and it wont go on your medical records. i would of though more people would of jumped on this.

I would be too afraid to function without health insurance. Every time I get my statements back blood work alone costs from $500-$1500 a pop, depending on what I am going for. Great loophole!!

Huh. We may have to try this!

 

[imported_RADAR]

Man! I don't have insurance,2 weeks ago i had a full panel done cost about $400.00 Tomorrow i go back for a checkup and see where i stand.

 

[Mad_Max21]

AWESOME DEAL! THANKS, THAT IS A SACRED PIECE OF INFO!

I got this off of am, there are a bunch of guys who have been using this, they say it's quick, fast, cheap, and discreet.

a guy who works for an insurance company said this is cool d/t when you go to a doctor and use your insurance to cover your blood work, this stays in your medical records.

and if in the future you want to change insurance companies, they can deny you insurance based off of irregular reading of blood work. and deem you too much of a liability to insure.

this cuts out the insurance comany, awkward doctor visit. just fill out online, take the print out to the lab nearest you, all they have you do is sign, and give blood, then get results emailed to you in a day or too. simple.

The female panel includes all the following:

Includes: Estradiol, serum; Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH); Luteinizing Hormone (LH); Testosterone, serum; Hematocrit; hemoglobin; mean corpuscular volume (MCV); mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH); mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC); red cell distribution width (RDW); percentage and absolute differential counts; platelet count; red cell count; white blood cell count; A:G ratio; albumin, serum; alkaline phosphatase, serum; ALT (SGPT); AST (SGOT); bilirubin, total; BUN; BUN:creatinine ratio; calcium, serum; carbon dioxide, total; chloride, serum; creatinine, serum; globulin, total; glucose, serum; potassium, serum; protein, total, serum; sodium, serum.

Lipids are extra, they're really the only other thing you may want to add, as the above covers everything else.
------------------

the paper you take to lab corp doesn't mention anything about being a female, only the test being done.
when you get there, you check the box for male, and reference values for a male are provided.*

one could also use something like this to pick the best time to get insurance also.

getting your blood work checked out to know when it's at it's best, then it's time to buy!

Hey that's a great idea. I almost got screwed renewing a life insurance policy a couple of years ago over F'n creatine! Yeah, turns out high levels of creatinine in your blood "indicates" kidney issues. Unless of course your ingesting 10g of creatine a day. Lesson learned.
