I ordered the test the same day, got an appointment for blood draw the next day, and I have the results now, 2 days after this launch.

From the launch text:

> measuring your baseline inflammation levels using an at-home, finger prick based, blood testing kit, that includes a shipping label to send the sample back to the lab.

For my self-ordered test, the lab took a whole vial of blood, as opposed to Be Golden's finger-prick method. But I'm sure I got the results faster than I would have, if I had used the mail-in kit and waited for the results.

All in all, I think this a valuable test, and available at a reasonable cost.

Good luck to Be Golden. I hope they can bring the cost lower, and increase the speed and frequency of the test results.
