Highlights from this day
- residual_solvent — most of the lipid improvement in my panel tracked the weight, not the drug 20:32
- surpass_two — nobody here is reading your bloods as a clinician. we are reading them as people who have had a lot of bloods 21:31
- surpass_two — my potassium came back weird and the retest was normal, whats that about 21:55
thats normal
most of the lipid improvement in my panel tracked the weight, not the drug
| Test | Why now |
|---|---|
| Fasting insulin | impossible to get a true baseline afterwards |
| Full lipid panel with apoB | the comparison is the whole point |
| HbA1c | 90-day average, so it lags your start |
| CMP + CBC | cheap, and the reference for everything after |
| Ferritin, B12, TSH | these fall quietly on a low intake |
do you fast for the full 12 hours or is 8 enough
what does homa-ir actually tell you that fasting insulin does not
thats the 90 day thing
sorry to jump in fast properly or do not bother. an eight hour fast and a twelve hour fast are different tests
i had a potassium that came back high and the repeat was normal. the tube had been knocked about
