hmmm let's see.... why didn't I think about that myself?
oh wait.... I know!
A- I dont have $70 for a strep test
B- When I have gone their test was wrong
C- I can take the same test they have at the office without paying the $70 each time
D- all of the above
I am asking if anyone knows any site that I can buy if for less that may have previously purchased from and were happy with the service. If any one has and would like to share, I'd appreciate it!

Yes, on Amazon. Good luck writing yourself a prescription though.

Ye, I wouldn't try that. I guess doing culture on her own could be beneficial because then she'll only go once she has a positive test. Also, some doctors will call in a prescription in you have positive test. But I would definitely NOT try getting antibiotics on my own.

I wouldn't either - but it's good to know that there are alternatives.
Especially with Obamacare encroaching in on health care as we know it, I think it's important to start looking out of the system for ways to take care of ourselves and our families.
