The cost of the blood tests and medications will very by area and clinics within the area, so I suggest giving local clinics a call to see how much they charge for these things. I can also give you a link to a website to find a low cost clinic in your area: http://www.humanesociety.org/animals/resources/tips/trouble_affording_pet.html?credit=web_id91754962
