Blood Testing Cayuga, Texas
A blood test performed in Cayuga, TX is a laboratory analysis performed on a blood sample that is usually extracted from a vein in the arm using a hypodermic needle, or via fingerprick. Multiple tests for specific blood components, such as a glucose test or a cholesterol test, are often grouped together into one test panel called a blood panel or blood work. Blood tests are often used in health care to determine physiological and biochemical states, such as disease, mineral content, pharmaceutical drug effectiveness, and organ function. Typical clinical blood panels include a basic metabolic panel or a complete blood count. Blood tests are also used in drug tests to detect drug abuse.
A basic metabolic panel measures sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), magnesium, creatinine, glucose, and sometimes calcium. Tests that focus on cholesterol levels can determine LDL and HDL cholesterol levels, as well as triglyceride levels.
Some tests, such as those that measure glucose or a lipid profile, require fasting (or no food consumption) eight to twelve hours prior to the drawing of the blood sample.
For the majority of tests, blood is usually obtained from the patient's vein. Other specialized tests, such as the arterial blood gas test, require blood extracted from an artery. Blood gas analysis of arterial blood is primarily used to monitor carbon dioxide and oxygen levels related to pulmonary function, but is also used to measure blood pH and bicarbonate levels for certain metabolic conditions.[While the regular glucose test is taken at a certain point in time, the glucose tolerance test involves repeated testing to determine the rate at which glucose is processed by the body.

STD Testing Cayuga, Texas
Our local Cayuga, Texas STD testing centers provide multiple STD tests for individuals who may have been exposed to or showing symptoms of an STD. Millions of Americans have some form of an STD and our testing is provided in a confidential manner. STD tests may be ordered for one specific type of test or you may order a multiple panel test which includes several STD tests. STD stands for Sexually Transmitted Disease, also known as STI or Sexually Transmitted Infection, meaning that these diseases are most often, but not exclusively, spread by sexual intercourse.
STDs are passed from one person to another through sexual activity which can include vaginal intercourse, anal intercourse and/or anal intercourse. Though not as common, STDs can also be transmitted through intimate physical contact such as heavy petting.
STDs do not always cause symptoms, or they may only cause mild symptoms. This makes it very possible to have an infection and not know it. Therefore, if you are sexually active it is important to get tested at least once a year.

Local Area Info: Cayuga, Texas
Cayuga is an unincorporated community in northwestern Anderson County, Texas, United States. According to the Handbook of Texas, the community had a population of 200 in 2000. It is located within the Palestine, Texas micropolitan area.
Cayuga was first settled in the 1840s. The ghost town of Wild Cat Bluff was considered a forerunner of the community, and served as a shipping point for farmers living in the community since it was extremely close to the community along the Trinity River. This community flourished briefly when traffic along the Trinity River was navigable, but then began to decline in the early 1870s when navigation along the river became no more. Afterwards, Cayuga began to come alive by the 1880s. A post office was established at Cayuga in 1894, and W.A. Davenport became the first postmaster after moving to the community from his native Cayuga, New York. He also operated a steam barge on the Trinity for several years. It shipped cotton, cross ties, and staves to the port city of Galveston. The Judson Baptist Church became the first church to be established in the community in 1854. A church called the Joppa Holiness Church held services in the settlement from 1899 to 1907, and another church called Freeman Baptist Church opened in 1910 and held services in the community until 1934. It remained a small farming community that same year. The discovery of oil by the Tidewater Oil Company in a field named J.N. Edens No. 1., caused Cayuga to become an oil boomtown overnight, and it had over 1,000 residents and 15 businesses by 1936. It began to go away after World War II, and the community's population plunged to 200 by 1952. It plunged again to 56 residents by 1974, and only two businesses were located in the community. The community was revived when the Richland-Chambers Creek Reservoir was discovered in nearby Freestone and Navarro counties and when four state prisons were established in the area. Large lignite reserves were discovered in the area not long after. Approximately 700 people lived in Cayuga in 1988, and there were several businesses, which included offices of two major petroleum companies in the area. The population plunged to a paltry 56 in 1990, and grew to 200 in 2000.
The first school established in Cayuga was taught by a man named G.W. Tuggle, who was also the chief justice of Anderson County. He and his wife, Elizabeth Tuggle, were given a half an acre of land near Tuggle Springs for the school campus on May 7, 1860. It remained standing at that spot until it was moved to the Cayuga-Blackfoot road in the 1880s. It was then moved to an unknown location just off Farm to Market Road 59 in 1922, after they had a bad argument. In 1974, the school closed and kids began attending school in nearby Bethel. Today the community is served by the Cayuga Independent School District.
