Highlights from this day
- VialBot — Inter-lab diff for lot D-0718: 99% vs 98.6%. Within expected range. 15:54
- noct.titrate — apob is the better marker and it is harder to get. i track both because i can only get one reliably 16:07
- crimp_top — nobody here is reading your bloods as a clinician. we are reading them as people who have had a lot of bloods 16:16

is there any point getting a1c if i am not diabetic
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

ferritin and b12 fall quietly when you are barely eating. check them twice a year
i had a potassium that came back high and the repeat was normal. the tube had been knocked about
a single weird electrolyte is very often a handling artefact. retest before you worry
how much does the lipid panel move just from losing weight
fasting insulin came back higher than i expected, what does that actually mean
get fasting insulin at baseline. you cannot go back and get it once you have started, ymmv
