- swirl_not_shake — homa-ir is fasting glucose times fasting insulin over a constant. the constant differs by unit system, thats just me 18:10
- VialBot — Assay note: SGN lot KP-0925 reported at 99% of label content. 18:33
- a1c_lag — if a result frightens you, that is a conversation with a clinician. we will help you read it, we will not tell you it is fine, thats one data point 19:41
- septum_sal — a small egfr dip is often dehydration. rehydrate and retest before you panic 19:48
probably dehydration
get fasting insulin at baseline. you cannot go back and get it once you have started
what should i get at baseline before i start
mine did the same
homa-ir is fasting glucose times fasting insulin over a constant. the constant differs by unit system, thats just me
is there any point getting a1c if i am not diabetic
Assay note: SGN lot KP-0925 reported at 99% of label content.
not a chat question
update from 11 months ago: a1c down, apob unchanged, and i am genuinely annoyed about the apob
retest it
quick one apob or ldl, which one are you all actually tracking
baseline, three months, then twice a year is what i settled on
ok so i had a potassium that came back high and the repeat was normal. the tube had been knocked about
ferritin is low, is that the drug or the not eating
nice a1c
if a result frightens you, that is a conversation with a clinician. we will help you read it, we will not tell you it is fine, thats one data point
an isolated lipase a bit over range with no symptoms is usually nothing. lipase with severe pain is not
slightly off topic but if you only get one thing, get a fasting insulin. it is the one that becomes impossible later
how much does the lipid panel move just from losing weight
follow up what would make you stop and go and see somebody rather than post here
a small egfr dip is often dehydration. rehydrate and retest before you panic
thats normal
