Western Blot

My Doctor is writing a prescription for me for the Western Blot test. I read some of the details of sending it and it sounds like a nightmare. I am bringing it to a LabCorp, anyone have recent experience dealing with this? Any information will help! Thank you!

The lab drawing the blood takes responsibility. This is no more difficult for the patient than having any other blood test.

This is a test you definitely need.

I'm not sure what is such a nightmare about collecting your blood and having it sent to UW? Same as sending Mum a parcel at Christmas!
