1. Vitamin D, 25-Hydroxy (GMC, IHC)
1. Vitamin D, 25-Hydroxy (GMC, IHC)
1. UT 08-18-2024 74.85H 30.00-55.50 ng/mL
Excerpt:
Doctors use the 25-hydroxy vitamin D test to monitor your vitamin D levels. Low levels can mean you need to spend more time outdoors or adjust your diet. But it can also occur with certain medical conditions………..
2. TSH Rfx on Abnormal to Free T4 (GMC)
2. TSH Rfx on Abnormal to Free T4 (GMC)
1. UT 08-18-2024 2.35 0.360-3.740 uIU/mL
Excerpt:
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (otherwise known as TSH) is a hormone that comes from your pituitary gland and tells your thyroid to work. The fact is that your thyroid only works when it’s told to work, and it works more when you yell at it and less when you whisper to it………….
3. Testosterone, Total (GMC)
3. Testosterone, Total (GMC)
- UT 08-18-2024 437.3 200.0- 703.0 ng/dL
Excerpt:
A testosterone test is a blood test that measures your levels of testosterone, a hormone.
Your gonads (sex organs) mainly produce testosterone. More specifically, the testicles in males and the ovaries in females make testosterone. Levels of testosterone are naturally much higher in males………….
Lipid Profile (GMC IHC ) 80061
4. Cholesterol
4. Cholesterol
- TX 08-18-2024 193 0-200 mg/dL
Excerpt:
Your cholesterol levels show how much cholesterol is circulating in your blood. Your HDL (“good” cholesterol) is the one number you want to be high (ideally above 60). Your LDL (“bad” cholesterol) should be below 100. Your total should be below 200. Talk with your provider about what your results mean for you and how to manage your cholesterol………
5. Triglycerides
5. Triglycerides
- TX 08-18-2024 73 0-200 mg/dL
Excerpt:
Triglycerides are a very common kind of fat in your body. They’re in butter and other fats in food. You also make triglycerides from extra calories to use later. But high triglyceride levels can raise your risk of issues like heart attacks and strokes. Exercise and other healthy habits can bring triglyceride levels back to normal………….
6. HDL Cholesterol
6. HDL Cholesterol
- TX 08-18-2024 63 >40 mg/dL
Excerpt:
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is known as the “good” cholesterol because it helps remove other forms of cholesterol from the bloodstream. A higher level of HDL cholesterol is linked to a lower risk of heart disease.
Cholesterol is a waxy substance that’s in every cell in the body. At healthy levels, cholesterol does useful work. This includes helping the body’s cells work as they should. HDL moves through the bloodstream on proteins called lipoproteins……….
7. LDL (Calculated)
7. LDL (Calculated)
- TX 08-18-2024 115 0-160 mg/dL
Excerpt:
Your cholesterol levels show how much cholesterol is circulating in your blood. Your HDL (“good” cholesterol) is the one number you want to be high (ideally above 60). Your LDL (“bad” cholesterol) should be below 100. Your total should be below 200. Talk with your provider about what your results mean for you and how to manage your cholesterol…………
Hemoglobin A1c (GMC) 83036
9. Estimated Average Glucose
9. Estimated Average Glucose
- TX 08-18-2024 126 mg/dL
Excerpt:
The normal value for eAG is between 70 mg/dL and 126 mg/dL (A1C: 4% to 6%). Most people with diabetes should aim for an eAG less than 154 mg/dL (A1C < 7%) to lower the risk for diabetes complications.
The results of an eAG test may not match your average of day-to-day blood sugar tests you have been taking at home on your glucose meter. This is because you are likely to check your sugar levels before meals or when your blood sugar levels are low. But it does not show your blood sugar at other times of the day. So, the average of your results on your meter may be different than your eAG……….
9. Hemoglobin-A1c-(GMC)
8. Hemoglobin-A1c
- TX 08-18-2024 6H 4.3-5.,6%
Excerpt:
An A1C test measures the average amount of sugar in your blood over the past few months. Healthcare providers use it to help diagnose prediabetes and Type 2 diabetes and to monitor how well your diabetes treatment plan is working………..
