Guest guest Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 I have used ZRT twice and would not hesitate to use them again. Both times I found their results to be consistent, which is a sign of a good lab. I have shown the results to doctors and none rolled their eyes, though they acted as if the results were of little weight and preferred to order their own blood tests. The blood tests seemed in my book not quite as consistent, or rather they seemed to have more variation in them. But, the blood tests were very close to the saliva results. Blood tests have been around so much longer that traditional doctors feel they are better. But, I have found saliva tests to be quite good and think that eventually they will be accepted. They do irritate some doctors because they allow the patient too much freedom to find out things on their own.

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 Thanks Tish! Just the answer I was looking for. I'm sure Dr's don't like us doing this on our own, but they better get used to it! I intend on taking my results to my Dr. Kathy Re: ZRT Labs I have used ZRT twice and would not hesitate to use them again.

Guest guest Posted December 25, 2004 Report Share Posted December 25, 2004 Thanks Cindi! As soon as I can scrape up $240, I am going to order the test. I think I have something else going on with hormones. I've already committed to going to NY with my dog show friends, so I have to go. Not only is it going to be a expensive, but I sure hope that I am feeling better by Feb to enjoy it.

Haven't been to a doctor since testing...but would show one. Yes. Yes. No. I was pleased with the service and information provided.
