Western Blot

[Jenn88]

Does anyone know where one would go to get western blot? I called my urgicare and was advised that my primary would have to give me a script. So he just called me back and he basically refused to give me the script saying he already referred me to an infectious disease doctor that I should follow up with them going forward bc I went to them to tell me if I have or not when he already told me I was a carrier but I am looking for definitive answers.

 

and I am. My pcr was negative so now I wanna do the western blot but don’t know how to go about it since the doctor won’t five me the script

Just call The University of Washington and request that they send you the kit. Then you will just have to go to a doctor to have them complete a form so you can go have your blood drawn and ship the sample to UW. UW is the only place that does the Western Blot.

If the doctor won't fill out the paperwork, then get a new doctor. UW will not do the test without a doctor to fill out the paperwork, and they send the results directly to the doctor, so you need someone to fill it out.
