Guest guest Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 Hello all, I finally got my blood and urine tests done. Because of my insurance (HMO) Dr Enns thought I should have them done locally. Well, I went to the lab here, and after the tech told me that he couldn't even find 3 of the tests in his computer and started asking me (LOL) how to do some of the others, I left without getting any of them done. I talked with Dr. Enns office and told them that I wasn't comfortable with getting them done at a lab that had never done them before. I finally ended up going to UCSF. They have worked with Dr. Enns before and I felt a lot better about that. They still had to do some research as they don't run the tests very often. But they knew where to look at least. I was glad that I called the lab in advance. It saved me a trip. My husband was planning on driving me down on Friday his regular day off. They told me that the mitochondrial DNA analysis had to go to San Diego and that it had to be read within 48 hours. Therefore, I could only have it drawn on Mon.,Tues., or Wed. I ended up having a friend drive me down. I don't trust myself to drive alone so far. Now I play the waiting game. :-) I forgot to ask the doctor how long it would take to get the results. Anyway keep me in your prayers that I will find some answers. I really don't know if Dr. Enns will be willing to look any further. Keep up the faith Joanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
