I searched on the site for "insulin" and got 0 results.

This is a good thing. Hopefully, they'll fill the insulin test gap soon.

Since I already have my lab tests stored on Quest, for me it will be seamless. Thing is, my doctors already order all the tests Quest offers for me. For my estrogen test, I had to go to a different lab. As Janet recommends Direct Labs, I already checked and know they do the insulin levels test.

I'm sure Quest will expand their offerings. Today I got the info email from them. Time will tell.

I used the saliva test from ZRT Labs, but I bought it on Amazon.
