Highlights from this day
- glucagon_arm — 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 19:40
- ferrous_ash — while im here i pay privately for fasting insulin because nobody will order it for me otherwise 20:03
- vialkeeper — slightly off topic but homa-ir is fasting glucose times fasting insulin over a constant. the constant differs by unit system 20:49
- vialkeeper — an isolated lipase a bit over range with no symptoms is usually nothing. lipase with severe pain is not 20:57
