I prefer 24 hours after pin, you'll likely see closer to a peak level this way,
Yes, just walk in to the clinic.
Was not able to do 24 hrs. Went in approx 36 hrs. Got there early there was already a line of about 15 people. No id req'd (guess that's all the info you fill out online first) they took my paper and I was out in about an hour. Only thing is it kinda hurt a bit.. damn lady put the needle in and turned around to do stuff with one hand on the needle the other moving things on the table.
 
I know it was probably in here somewhere but what is the proper test to run mid cycle with a Test/NPP cycle? Maybe I misunderstood Burrs original post but 19 nors can give exaggerated Test and screwball E2 readings.
 
Expecting my 7 week bloods Test C 500mg/wk 800mg/wk EQ on monday or tuesday. 250mg Stealth Test C 2x M,TH and 400mg Stealth EQ 2x M,TH. Bloods were drawn at 24hrs from last pin, taking .25mg adex 2x/wk took .25mg 24 prior to bloods. Will post up in lab testing section when I receive results.
 
I have to say thanks for everyone that's contributed to this thread. It's definitely been a great read and helpful. Even though I read the entire thread, I'm still a little unsure about how I should go about my BW for my cycle coming up in a week, and I have a few questions for anybody that would be willing to chime in.

1) I plan on running Prop and NPP for the first part of my cycle, and then swapping out NPP for TrenA about 8 weeks in. There will also be an overlap where I will be pinning TrenA and NPP together for a couple of weeks in that transition.

I plan on doing a log and wanted to get BW done to document the quality of the gear I chose to purchase and run. I'm a bit confused though on how to choose the correct BW and times I should do the BW after starting the cycle to show that the Prop, NPP, and Tren are legit. I will also be doing 4 weeks of Drol at the start, and 6 weeks of Winstrol at the end. I was thinking my BW might have to look something like this?

Pre-Cycle: Hormone Panel for Women
48 Hours after first pin: Hormone Panel with F&T Testosterone LC/MS-MS
48 Hours (8 weeks in): Hormone Panel with F&T Testosterone LC/MS-MS
Post-Cycle: Hormone Panel for Women


2) Am I able to order my BW, for example, today, and have it scheduled to be done on Monday the 28th? or can I expect that they will assign me a day after my order?

3) Is a lipid test highly recommended? for example this lipid test at the beginning?

Thanks in advance for any help. I'm a bit tight on funds with the holidays and having just gotten the 1st part of my cycle together, so I'd like to get the correct blood work to help everyone out by seeing needed test results to validate the quality of what I'm using, but at a minimum cost.
 
Searched a bit more and answered #2 for myself. In case anybody else was wondering, no appointment is necessary. Just go down during the hours of operation with your requisition papers and provide your sample.
 
your blood test is not going to tell you if npp/tren is good or not, and I'm under the impression that you should probably just run the npp, or the tren and not try to switch mid cycle.

I'll keep that in mind, thank you. As far as testing protocol then, just blood work for my test levels on Prop with:

PreCycle: Hormone Panel for Women
48 hours after first pin: Hormone Panel with F&T Testosterone LC/MS-MS
PostCycle: Hormone Panel for Women

This is for my logging guys, and I just want it to be done properly for the community.

Can I ask you guys if any of you have a method to test your Tren/NPP products other than by side effects? Maybe another hormone panel that will test for other changes? I guess I could also do LabMax, but I've been reading it's not very reliable in telling you how effective the gear is, since it can test positive with traces of hormones. I went blind last cycle and went off of side effects, is that what I'll just have to do this time as well? :confused:
 
Just ordered my (1st) Pre bloods. Super pumped. I can get you guys to help me make sense of it all right? Thanks in advance.
 
Is there any added cost other than the blood test we buy? Seems when I get blood work at the doctor I always get a bill break down from what my insurance paid and it's usually in the $1000 range.

Thanks

I think the numbers that our insurance gives us are bullshit, there is no way they are really paying that.... they just want our copay to be calculated off of those outrageous numbers.
These are the actual prices, except for one lab that charges an extra 8 bucks for the blood draw.

How can we possibly save you 50-81%? We save you money in at least three (3) distinct ways! First, we arrange for you to skip the middle-man (“the doctor”), and to skip their always cursory but always costly “physical exam” that “they” would normally require of you before they will order a blood test for you. Second, the higher volume of blood tests that we arrange for thousands of health-conscious people all throughout the U.S.A. earn us a lower ‘analysis’ price at the laboratories than your lower-volume doctor must pay them for the exact same blood test. Third, HTD does not “mark-up” our blood test service costs as high as a doctor typically will. Not even close!

Those are just the three major factors. There are several other money-saving operational processes we have incorporated into our organization that helps us to help you save money too. For instance, we ask you to pay in advance- so, we do not have to deal with late payments, partial payments, or bounced checks like so many businesses. We also do not accept insurance, which would automatically require "negotiating" payments and waiting 60-90 days to receive them. All of these processes combine to allow us at Health-Tests-Direct to considerably reduce our overall operational expenses and pass along to you a savings of 50-81% off what you would normally pay when, instead, you get your blood test ordered through your personal physician.

Just got mine done Thursday and there was no additional cost. I just walked in and handed them my paper. They didn't ask for Credit Card info, insurance card, or anything. Just that paper you get when you order it. It was painless, in that aspect.
 
awesome post man. sticky. why not get blood work done at the doctor's? That's what i do

I dont want to tell my DR that I need to check my test level so I can see if my black market hormones are full strength.
There are some things I dont want to talk to my Dr about.
And I doubt he will be down with the frequency I need them done, Doc its time for pre cycle bloods, doc its time for mid cycle bloods. doc I'm done with PCT need some more bloods.
