Due to the fact that I am technically healthy and not exhibiting symptoms because I'm in "remission", if I want to know how I am tracking, I have to pay for the test. I'm not complaining...it's important to me as a health indicator.

It's a blood test that our gov't stopped paying for unless it is ordered by an "Internist". In Ontario, it costs $35 per test.

what is an internist? lol so if you did have symptoms of an illness then you would have that test covered? is it just a simple blood test?

An internist is a specialist who determines how your organs and body systems are working or not working together. Beyond your regular medical doctor. Yes, a simple blood test.

yes i would like to have mine tested too because i have no idea where it is at

The sun is your best source to manufacture vit D naturally. I STOPPED using sunscreen and refuse to sell it in my shop. I couldn't make one that didn't have titanium dioxide in it. I wear big hats and avoid direct exposure in peak times of the day.

i have a family friend who is in their late 80s and they SWEAR by sunscreen.. the coppertone cheap crap and over the last decade I can't tell you how many times this individual has had skin cancer sores taken off their face and arms... it's almost as if the sunscreen is making it WORSE? i try to suggest that to them but nope, gov recommends sunscreen! so i can't tell them any diff lol
