Over the years, I have always wondered why people reacted to medications in a certain way. Having to go through a few tests myself, I wish I knew right off the bat what medications would work best for me.
Luckily, I discovered PGX Testing by PanaceaPGX.
PGX Testing is not as complicated as it seems. In fact, I wish I knew of it sooner to help facilitate myself and my physician with the meds I’d be prescribed. The concept is simple: PanaceaPGX offers a choice of testing solutions that will help determine the right drug and the right dose for a person based on their genetic makeup. PGXTesting uses miGene to personalize the prescription process.
The kit was really easy to use. Once I completed the steps, I sent it off and received my results not too long after.
Now that I have my results, I can share them with my physician and discuss further details on what medications and doses work best for me. I have always been fascinated with cultures, heritage, and genetic makeup. It’s been fascinating to learn what makes up all of me and how I can apply that to medicine.
The way it works is that miGene, “…conveys a blueprint to how your body’s unique molecular characteristics and distinctions allow it to process medication.” All the user has to do is share the results with his/her doctor and from there, they can discuss how to proceed with prescriptions going forward. The tests completed through PanaceaPGX is HIPAA compliant and does not sell your information to pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, your results are just yours, and up to you how to use them. These are some of the points that sold me.
The process of the PanaceaPGX miGene test is as follows:
• Place your order
• Engage in a phone call with PanaceaPGX for doctor approval of test
• Once it receives approval, the test kit is sent to you
• With a simple cheek swab, the test is complete and ready to return in a prepaid envelope
• Once you receive results, you participate in another call with a doctor to go over the details
• The details are written out and sent via secured email
• You sign a release if you agree to share results with your own doctor
See? Easy peasy as pie! And for all Kelly’s Thoughts on Things Readers, you can order your PanaceaPGX test for only $499 (vs. retail value of $799). Just use my link here to get yours!
