I called Igenix to order the free kit. I then took the doctor's paperwork included in the kit to my GP and he filled it out to order the blood draw. He has to know what tests you want done. I would order The Complete Initial Lyme Panel which is around $250.00. I then took the doctor's script to my lab along with the paper also included in the kit on how the lab technician must draw the blood. The tech has to spin the blood and that can take up to an hour. They will pack it into the kit which then must be taken to FedEx and shipped out the same day. I called FedEx to see what time their pick up was so I could have my blood drawn prior to FedEx pickup. Have your blood drawn on a Monday or Tuesday so it gets to Igenix by Friday. The kit includes a special plastic bag and a mailing label for proper mailing. Your lab may have a FedEx pick up so I would ask. Igenix can answer any of your questions. They are quite nice. I hope this helps.
