How much does this usually cost?

For the test? And then weekly treatment shots?

Anyone ever have any experience with the company Andegen?

It really depends on how much your insurance company pays for.

All of my testing was covered with a <$100 co-pay.

The shots are expensive at first because you get them more often. You buy your vial which was around $100 bucks a month. I think I then paid like $10 each shot.

It's been about 2 years since my last round. I moved and didn't need them anymore. Not sure if the shots worked or it was the change in environment.

When you took the test, was the treatment automatically created, in which you then had to pay for? Or did you test, and then decide later not to continue treatment?

Aside from the initial test, you only pay if you decide to do the shots.

Start with your diet first. It has the most direct effect on your body.

Thanks.

Husband was tested in December. Decided not to do it because insurance said it was elective and wouldn't cover it. Just received a first bill last week for $1400 for treatment on days he never stepped foot in the clinic. They are claiming those are the days they mixed his specific treatment shots.
