    There's been some debates on this forum in the past about urine tests compared to actual blood labs. I can't say I know enough about the effectiveness of them, but I'm always curious to learn more and see what's new and/or different.

    Please post your results when they are in. Also, does that package deal include CBC's and Lipids?

    Thanks

    The Rhein 24 hour is an excellent panel.

    All assays are "ultrasensitive".

    They use LC/MS/MS technology, and have a high count on their results.

    As Vette said, please post your resutls as it will be very interesting to the members.

    Also, try to get SHBG as well.

    One thing for sure, it's a LOT cheaper than doing the same test using blood. It would be interesting to get both of them done at the same time blood/urine and see how close they are.

    This package does not include CBC or lipids from what I can tell. Also does not include shbg. Not sure why?
