Immune testing questions
I just did my immune testing at SIRM. From all of my research i heard that its many vials of blood......they only took three from me and they said they were looking for TH1 TH2 and NK.........I didn't ask too many questions. 
If you've had these tests done would you mind explaining them to me? Also I am wondering why they only took three vials of blood. TIA

Immune testing questions
immune is just a few vials. thrombophilia (blood clotting) panel is about 20-30 depending on the size vial they use. did they or will they be doing thrombo bloodwork?
i didnt use SIRM but i did the testing with Dr. B and he was able to do immune testing in-house but i had to go to a special lab with a printout of about 40-50 different things in order to do the thrombo panel.
good luck!

Gotcha! No I did not do that, i am guessing since I haven't had any losses? I opted to do the immune testing, they did not push it on me but I was curios to find out if there were any issues......thank you!

Re: Immune testing questions
I went for recurrent loss testing which includes immune and it was ab 13 tubes. Most places group it with loss testing so I'm not sure how many tubes it would be if it was just immune. I know I did karotyping and that was two tubes and my genetic tests were only 2 also. So maybe that's about right.
