My son's doctor recently ordered this test which is very expensive. I was wondering if it is necessary since my son had the Shoemaker mold panel run two years ago. He also recently had the C3a and C4a rerun and both came back in the normal range.
Here are my son's results from his Shoemaker panel run two years ago:
1. C4a -- Jewish Health 8371 (reference range: 0-2830)
2. C3a -- Jewish Health 240 (reference range: 0-940)
3. HLA DR -- Gene 1: (07, 02, -, 53, -) "mold susceptible"
Gene 2: (08, 04, - , - , -) "no recognized significance"
4. MMP-9 219 (reference range: <984)
5. ACTH 80.1 (reference range: 7.2-63.3)
6. MSH 62 (reference range: 0-40)
7. Cortisol, AM 25.7 (reference range: 3.0-22.0)
8. DHEA Sulfate 201 (reference range: 38-340)
8. VIP 56.2 (reference range: 0-58.8)
9. VEGF 55 (reference range: 31-86)
10. CRP 0.2 (reference range: 0.0-4.9)
11. Celiac workup negative
12. Anti-cardiolip. antibody negative
13. MTHFR single mutation, C677T
14. VCS normal (done on-line)
15. TGF-B1 3300 (reference range: 344-2382)
Thanks!
