    For just the synacthen (ACTH stimulant) and bloods:
    Vet GP $351.00
    IMS: $304.15

    IMS also had a consult fee on top, but that was the test prices.

    Oh my! I thought $160.00 was high. Although that was just the ACHT test.

    Do you have a break down of your costs...and where are you from. Norman and I live in Sheboygan WI.
