As to getting into a study, here is a link for the status of all studies:

I just got back from the lab. The test is 745.00. I was not prepared for that. No I do not have insurance. I called a discount health program. Left a message. Hopefully they call back soon. Truthfully, I am frustrated. I seem to be running against every wall out there. I have 2 more options. I just have to believe that one of them will work out.
I do not know how much the test cost but it takes 7 to 10 days to get the results. Do you have insurance? Mine covered these tests.
