Hi Ivorybow:

I got tested, but I did it through a private lab. I personally feel the cost at the SP site is outrageous. You can find the saliva tests online much cheaper, and the lab will give you a summary of your results (although it doesn't take a rocket scientist to interpret them). If you do a search, there is a link somewhere posted by MsJinx that listed some online sites. As for the insulin test, you can get that through your doctor.

I'm glad I got the test. What I mistook for burnt out adrenals was in fact very high estrogen levels (I got a full hormone panel done). It really surprised me and helped direct me on the correct path to help my hormones.

Your history sounds very close to mine so I really feel for you. I also have chemical sensitivities. There's no problem with the test, you just spit into a tube.

Hope this helps.

Wanda
