Blood Test help

[JUICEMAN]

Can some of you guys tell me how I go about getting a blood test? I am not sure what kind of a doctor to make an appointment with. Also, will blood test be covered by insurance. Thanks.

any doc will do.....just make sure to tell him you want your test levels checked...

Most ins. co cover bloodwork

Go to any GP and tell him or her that you are worrying about your kidney and liver function due to extreme amounts of protien consumption, that should work. Myself I always told the doc that I'm self adminstering large amounts of anabolic steroids. And I want these tests, every doctor thus far has worked with me so that insurence covered the cost. In most cases you need to request that the lab report be sent to you as well as the doctor.

If you tell your doc you are using steriods ask them not to write it in your chart. Liver and Kidney fuction studies are not uncommon and im sure there is "someone" in you family with a history.

It is your perogative and must be respected. Ironically the only liver function problems i had was from oral drug to combat thickened toe nails. The pharmaceutical company lowered the dosing requirement after i finished. Sensibly using steriods make docs crazy but the more dangerous drugs didnt . Go figure.
