- sharps_bin_sid — update from 7 months ago: a1c down, apob unchanged, and i am genuinely annoyed about the apob 19:04
- see_a_clinician — fast properly or do not bother. an eight hour fast and a twelve hour fast are different tests thyroid moving slightly is common enough that i would repeat it before… 19:25
- sharps_bin_sid — a small egfr dip is often dehydration. rehydrate and retest before you panic nobody here is reading your bloods as a clinician. we are reading them as people who have… 19:27

what would make you stop and go and see somebody rather than post here
good numbers
my alt has come down a lot since i started losing, is that expected
my potassium came back weird and the retest was normal, whats that about
thats the 90 day thing
fast properly or do not bother. an eight hour fast and a twelve hour fast are different tests
thyroid moving slightly is common enough that i would repeat it before doing anything
a small egfr dip is often dehydration. rehydrate and retest before you panic
nobody here is reading your bloods as a clinician. we are reading them as people who have had a lot of bloods
not a chat question
a1c is a ninety day average. retesting at week six tells you almost nothing
baseline, three months, then twice a year is what i settled on
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
