Lab Tests You Can Order From Home (Without A Doctor)

My husband has Sqaumas Cell Carcinoma in the Lymph Nodes the left side of his neck. He had to see doctors and they wouldn’t look him in the eye talking to him. So, we talked to a herbalist and he got hair samples and saliva and it shows all that is in him.
So he has been on herbs to heal it and he is doing very well. His color is back and no dark circles under his eyes. Many do no believe in herbs to heal–but they do. Chemo and radiation puts poison into your body and destroys the fighting cells as well. He would have lost his teeth–muscle amount–hearing trouble-dry throat and mouth.
Now, doctors do not even go into the hair samples and saliva to find out what is there.
To me, it is all about making money and not telling people what is real because they really don’t know.
The herbalist is not even expensive and he knows what is going on and he looked us in the eye and told he can heal it but it will take time. I asked him if he promised and he said yes because carcinoma can be healed easily. I asked him how many he had saved and healed–over 1,000 people who are so thankful. One who had that orange from the war was told he had only 6 months to live–18 years ago and he was healed and saved with herbs and how to do them.
I believe herbs are better than pills and chemo and radiation.
I have change many things here at home–new cookware and bakeware from Ceramco–which I seen on your pages. Very nice to use and safe. I have a 4 gallon Zenwater for pure water with nothing harmful in it. I will take care of my husband and we are both healthy and will continue.

If you are having Thyroid problems, you might also be interested in learning more about hormonal imbalances and how it can affect the thyroid. The book What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Premenopause: Balance Your Hormones and Your Life From Thirty to Fifty by Dr. John R. Lee and Jesse Hanley is a good resource.

Hello Katie and all,

Since I’m seeing so many comments on food allergies/sensitivities/intolerances, I want to toss something out with the caveat that it is “for educational purposes only. The following information is not intended to diagnose nor treat any disease of any kind; nor should it be used in place of common sense; nor is it intended to replace the advice of your M.D., D.O., or other licensed, qualified healthcare practitioner.”

There are several significant short-comings to most types of allergy/sensitivity tests that can cause the tests to be inaccurate; or provide unreliable results. (Katie, I would be happy to write to you about exactly why this is the case if you are interested; or think your readers may be interested.)

If you do not have a pace-maker, and do not take any type of medication that affects your heart rate or pulse, this is the most accurate sensitivity/allergy test I’ve ever seen or used. It can be performed by anyone who can feel a pulse – your own or someone else’s – in the neck (easier if testing oneself) or in the wrist (easier if testing someone else). I have successfully taught this technique to children as young as seven years old — both for its practical application, and as a teaching tool about how the body works. (Also to demonstrate the negative effects of junk food on their bodies, not just using words, but in a way that is so real and immediate, they can literally touch and feel the results in the moment.)

First, gather any foods or substances you wish to test (I strongly suggest including in the first session a wheat product of some kind, an egg, milk, chicken, sugar, iodized table salt, sea salt, commercial personal care products – shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, toothpaste, soap/body wash, and anything consumed on a daily basis) and place them on your kitchen table within your reach, or that of another person who is to be tested, while seated in a chair at the table.

You only need a tiny piece/sample of each item you are testing, so you can line up small samples if you choose. However, since the test also works through containers of all types, I find it easier to just put whole items or containers on the table.

If you are testing items that require refrigeration, you may want to test them either first, or separately, to minimize the time they are standing at room temperature during the testing process.

Get a notepad and pen, and make a list of all of the items on the table.

Have the person being tested sit in a chair at the table and just relax for five minutes (peehaps while writing the list of items on the table). Just a reminder, this works the same way whether the person being tested is yourself or someone else.

Now have the person being tested find their pulse and feel it. It doesn’t matter if it’s located on the throat or the wrist. No need to count the pulse; just feel it. Nor does it matter if the person being tested feels the pulse or someone else does it. This is the “resting pulse.”

Now take the first item on the list and place it in the hand of the person being tested. If the item is too large to hold in the hand, have the person touch it with his/her fingertips, while continuing to feel the pulse in the throat or the wrist (when testing oneself, it’s easier to use the throat than the wrist).

If there is a sensitivity to the item being held or touched, the pulse will begin to speed up. If it is something the body regards as highly toxic, the pulse will begin to race. As soon as the item is released, the pulse will slow down again. If the item is held or touched again, the pulse will begin to speed up again. It is not a subtle change. It is very noticeable. This is why it isn’t necessary to count the pulse – just feel it.

If the item in question is not causing a sensitivity or allergic reaction in the body, the pulse will remain constant. The resting pulse will not change whether the item is being held or touched or not.

Move down the list of all of the items on the table. Note on the list however you choose, which items cause the pulse to speed up when held or touched. These items are causing an immune reaction in the body; causing or exacerbating inflammation; and several other responses. If at all possible, these items should be eliminated from use or consumption unless or until they are desensitized by a professional who performs allergy elimination/ desensitization.

I hope you find this information useful. One last reminder that this information is for educational purposes only. It is not intended to diagnose or treat any disease; nor should it be regarded as a substitute for medical advice; nor the recommendations of your licensed healthcare provider.

Be well!

P.S. Especially since this post is about thyroid issues, one more advantage to feeling the pulse at the throat vs. on the wrist, is that you will find it close enough to the thyroid that you can gently feel the pulse on one side of the throat with your index finger while resting your thumb gently on the opposite lobe of the thyroid during the test. I test each item with and without my thumb touching the thyroid. By touching the thyroid while performing the test, it is a way to isolate the thyroid response to an item. While the body in general may not “object” to a specific item, when that item is “presented” to the thyroid specifically (by touching the item with fingertips of one hand, and having the thumb rest on opposite lobe of thyroid from the pulse in the neck/throat), the pulse may begin to speed up only while touching the thyroid. Any item causing this response should also ideally be eliminated if possible. Do note on the list though that it was the thyroid specifically responding to the item (I do this by marking it with a T).

Fantastic information! Thanks for leading the charge for self-advocacy. Love your well-researched, simply explained articles.

Thanks for this post! I have several medical conditions that I believe need to be monitored more often than what my insurance covers. I don’t want to go from”Your kidneys are functioning at 50%” to, 6 months later, ” Well, unfortunately, you now need dialysis.” I don’t like those kinds of surprises! And the prices are reasonable!

Thanks for this! Unless I’m missing something, it’s not clear to me how these tests helped diagnose your Hashimotos. Did the wellness panel reveal something the thyroid tests performed by your doctors previously didn’t?

We started using direct labs a few years ago and love it!!!!
