D-Lactate an HS2 Tests?

[soulfeast]

I'm sorry. Tried to find but can't. Where would I find tests for D-Lactate and HS2? In US if available?
I know the Organix Profile from Metametrix tests for D-Lactate, but hoping not to have to pay for that test since I just had a GI Effects panel as well as slew of other tests.. just want D-Lactate alone and HS2.

Thank you!!

Would Quest's urine D-Lactate be OK? http://www.questdiagnostics.com/testcenter/BUOrderInfo.action?tc=15970X&labCode=SJC

It looks like they send it to Mayo Clinic for testing, by the looks of the address at the bottom of the link. Mayo also have the test available, if you would rather go through them direct.

I would imagine that both would be ok for d-lactate testing. I would take the test late afternoon, if possible, as d-lactate accumulates after each carb containing meal, reaching a peak in late afternoon, early evening. Sorry, don't know about HS2 test, maybe someone else might.

Do you mean H2S - hydrogen sulfide?

I have just done some searches, and Kenny de Meirleir in Europe and Sarah Myhill in the UK do them, but I don't know re the US.

The EU/UK ones can be found here:

If you search this site for hydrogen sulfide you will find other discussions that may help.
