Environmental Allergies Support Group

I wrote some post in discussions, but never got much of a response. Here is goes, I copied all my post here to see if someone can help me!

Ok, So here it goes. I did go to the doctor out of town. It was ok, He did send me back to my home town to do some blood work. This is the list of things he had on the sheet! Can someone tell me if he did the right thing?
Complete Metabolic panel, Lipid Panel, CBC w diff w pitt, t3update, thyroxine(t4), TSH, 3rd generation, urinalysis, resp allerigies, food allergies, IFE and IGE. He did give me some samples of xyzal and now I have to wait for them to send my rx company a ok to fill it. They do work well and help with sleeping. He gave me 2 puffers, told me to get chromium plitnate (sorry if I misspelled it), alpha lipoic acid, and to get a oreck air purifier. I cannot afford the purifier, I need to find one I can afford.

I went 90 miles to get help!
Oh, also I have not heard anything yet on the blood work. I am on top of calling the lab to get updates on when they are sending them. I wonder if I can get the lab to send them to me too? When I went there I asked the lady and she told me that they only send it to the doctor!
Also they were kind of confused as to what test the doctors wanted, something about it not being in there computer. She had to call the doctor's office and they talked but Now I am wondering if the right test were run for my enviromental studies.
The doctor did say that a hair analysis would be better but my insurance will probably not cover it. I wish he would have at least checked to see.
