Hoping my GP will agree to test for some of the things I have read here and in books. If the tests can be run at Labcorp I think she will be more amenable.
KPU? Methylation? MTHFR?
The other tests I have the LC codes for. Tks.
Have others tested the Histamine whole blood?

Not sure about this one> Kryptopyrroluria
You can do searching on any test on this site for LapCorp:
no, Labcorp does not do the KPU. Health(y)Diagnostics does. You can call them for the test kit - no doctor's orders. Same for Nagalase test.

No, HD will not mail to patient. The doctor must call and request it. I have called HD a couple of times. Not real helpful. As much as I want to test Nag and KPU through them - I don't want to deal with them. Or ask a doctor who has never heard of them/Nag and special KPU/HPU tests to. Doctors don't want to deal with labs they have not heard of. I have learned this the hard way. If the specialty labs would mail the kits to the patient - to take to the doctor and explain, ask to draw the blood and "sign here" it would go much easier.
Yes, I am frustrated. I guess no other lab does the Nag test. What are other options for KPU? Tks.

Question - what doctors can/cannot order the kits and write the orders to test? For Health Diagnostics.
I think my chiro might help me on this.
Advanced Lab. in Penn. for LD/tests - apparently cannot be ordered from a chiro.

Forrest Health sells the KPU/HPU test. You do not need a doctor to order it. I believe you have to call them and they give you a password to order. Mine was "health."
