EDIT: I didn't know where to post this, so move it where ever you want moderators.
This is a post geared for all college students using AAS/PH/etc. I just found out that my tuition includes health insurance and coverage at the on-campus medical center. They only charge $15 for a complete metabolic profile (HDL, LDL, ALT, AST, Electrolytes, etc.) and only a few dollars more (i forgot the actual #) to test my thyroid hormones. They said that some of the prices can vary depending of the provider and wether or not the have the testing equipment there or have to send it out to get results. Not too mention that most the test done their (including STD's and other blood tests) can be done annonimously. You pay, schedule, have the test, and come in a week or two later to get the results. Here is a chart from the website.
Commonly Ordered Laboratory Tests at the Student Health and Counseling Center

The reason I'm posting this is because i don't see enough people getting blood work and I'm tired of hearing excuses. Not to meantion people just out of highschool are using them as well. I'm not sure what the situation if for other University systems, and I know not all colleges can offer this, that's why im asking that college students check to see what kind of stuff they offer. Remember...your health is your responsibility, nobody else's. Don't blaim it on the supplements or companies you bought from.
