Is it possible to get bloodwork done and not have your health insurance see it or any of them? basically so its not recorded.

sort of messed up how you cannot have your blood tested for your own knowledge and have it be only for you and your doctor to know.


i asked my general physician and he said it is recorded no matter what.

any other ways?

...unless you know a phlebotomist, not sure how you could get away with that.

Even if you did, not sure what they're beholden to.

Op dodged so much in this thread. This is equivalent to having someone else's blood and wanting to test it with no questions asked in a professionally regulated environment full of liability. So many malicious potential uses.

well if you want to save money, go into your doctor and just say you've been feeling very lethargic the past few weeks and tell him you'd like a comprehensive male panel, or say you suspect you may have low test and would like to find out..

that will have your bloodwork recorded obviously, but it will be covered by insurance

otherwise, i think the comprehensive male panel is something like $220-240

yes you can..

go to a quest diagnostics or another place like that.. you can pretty much do it almost completely anonymous, you just look suspicious as fuck, but it's not like you can get in trouble for it either.

/e when you go to get it, you will fill out a form that will give you the option of having it sent to your doctor, your home, or picked up yourself, and also to be interpreted for you iirc, just decline those, pick up in person.


Requesting Lab Tests

Can I request my own laboratory tests?

Individuals cannot order tests themselves, due to state regulatory requirements, but if you are interested in having a specific laboratory test performed, please ask your healthcare provider if the test is appropriate for you, and if he/she can order the test(s) for you. To facilitate your discussion, it might be helpful to bring your healthcare provider a printed copy of the brochure or page from our website where you learned about the test.


got this from quest diagnostic web page

so if i cant request it myself? i need a dr to request, which i though so.

so how would i go about this?

I just called quest and labcorp, you have to have doctors orders.

My friend and his mom both work at the labcorp I do work urine samples for, so that's also where I get my bloods done and they just do it for me. (I used to sell his mom weed 6-7 years ago, so she knows the deal)

If I were you, I'd just tell the doctor you want to have a comprehensive blood check done. Look up some side effects of low T or having a bad lipid profile and bull shit the doctor.

You really don't need to worry about insurance dropping you for anything being "abnormal." Insurance covers people who have been to drug rehab 10 times.

Oh yeah I think certain states require Dr's approval.. if you live close to another state you could hope it's allowed there.

Either way, the shit gets expensive, and you are better off bullshitting with your Dr. Build some rapport with the dude, and more likely than not he will order the labs and you'll be fine.

If you're worried about gear showing up just drop to a trt dose, get the labs, then resume.
