Good news. I finally got off my fourth point of contact and drove down to ADs, my 'trates are around 10. Maybe a hair more but all in all I am at 10. Stands to reason that my test kit is a bit skewed to the negative.

I went ahead and picked up one of those pro kits. I'm ok as long as the wife doesn't find out.

Thank you all for the many offers of assistance and advice through my little mini emergency.
