I always thought that most Igenex testing was at least a few hundred bucks.
I spoke to a doctor's office today who said that they'd need an Igenex test and it would cost $100.
Are they getting a special rate or something or is this a test I'm not aware of?

IGg and IGm are $100 each for the western blot.
Maybe they are just testing one?

ask them

Interesting...are both needed? It seems weird they're just testing one.
I can call back tomorrow but they have a long waiting list to see the doc.
I was hoping that if testing was that affordable that I could get it run myself before seeing the doc (I have another doc that will sign for it, but doesn't treat lyme)
I have multiple family members that need tested and can't afford multiple expensive tests.
