iodine/bromide testing done at hakala labs? - Does it require a Doctor's order?

[Guest guest]

This is mainly a " bump " up for the post about hakala labs

http://hakalalabs.com. I was under the impression that you had to

have a doctor's order to get an iodine load test -- is this not the

case at hakala labs? If you don't - that would be very good news

because not everyone lives in an area that is easy accessible to an

iodine-friendly doctor - although it would be desirable I think to be

working with a doctor for iodine supplementation - it seems like it

might be better than nothing to at least be able to get the test done

to see where you are with respect to iodine supplementation.

Also I would like to know know if anyone had had their testing done

thouth Hakala and if you thought they were reliable.
