Wow! This us all good info. Do you mind my asking the cost if the test you did on your own? Are you in the US?

Yes. Labcorp and Quest both do the tests. I’m not certain if I am allowed to say the website but Google Health Labs. It’s very easy to do! They have tons of tests available. For my location it was around $100 and well worth it. Just remember to not take your prednisone for 24 hours and test should be done around 8am. I did it faster but that’s not necessary.
