    Bloodwork question

    So I have a problem. I had bloodwork (full panel) done 3rd week into cycle and my doc was concerned about test levels being high and scheduled an appointment to have bloods done again 6 months from now (my insurance will only cover every 6 months). I have called a local lab in my area about just paying cash and having bloods drawn with a full panel. According the the guy on the other end of the phone no place will draw blood for me without a prescription from my doctor. She will not give me one and seems concerned about why I want bloodwork done only 2 months after previous bloods and says that it is unnecessary. I obviously cannot tell her what is going on so that's out. For the private labs that you can send your bloods too do you have to freaking draw your own blood???? So here I am 9 weeks into cycle eating 4500 calories a day and only up 10 pounds of water and waste and I can't get bloods done easily to see where I stand.

    Private md labs...is just one of a few sites u can order blood work from without a script. If u r in the US....There are a few more. Very easy and fast results

    Bout 350 I belive....but u really don't need a full panel. Especially for mid cycle bloods. Think the female hormone panel is like 80 or so. And covers the basics on what u would need

    That's not bad. I'm thinking the test is very very underdosed as I haven't gained squat and I am halfway through my 9th week. I am eating at 4500. If I have only been cruising along for 9 weeks on say TRT replacement levels would it be safe to get legit full dose gear and start a real cycle at this point depending on what my bloodwork says? Thanks man.
