if your glucose is in mg/dL the divisor is 405. if it is mmol/L it is 22.5

- apnoea_down_two — fast properly or do not bother. an eight hour fast and a twelve hour fast are different tests 19:16
- nine_nine_one — lipase slightly over range with no symptoms, how worried should i be 19:21
- site_itch — a single weird electrolyte is very often a handling artefact. retest before you worry, still working it out 19:37
- identity_shift — do you get bloods every 2 months or only when something changes 20:45
- gus_charts — homa-ir is fasting glucose times fasting insulin over a constant. the constant differs by unit system my numbers: a1c and triglycerides both moved a lot, ldl barely… 22:10
my numbers: a1c and triglycerides both moved a lot, ldl barely moved at all, ask me again in a month
lab error maybe
coming back after 5 months, what changed in your numbers
nice a1c
fast properly or do not bother. an eight hour fast and a twelve hour fast are different tests
mine did the same
unrelated but what would make you stop and go and see somebody rather than post here
lipase slightly over range with no symptoms, how worried should i be
apob if you can
not a chat question
thats normal
ferritin is low, is that the drug or the not eating
slightly off topic but is it too early to retest a1c at week 9
ferritin and b12 fall quietly when you are barely eating. check them twice a year
see somebody
a single weird electrolyte is very often a handling artefact. retest before you worry, still working it out
too early for a1c
retest it
most of the lipid improvement in my panel tracked the weight, not the drug
my alt has come down a lot since i started losing, is that expected
thats the 90 day thing
the most useful thing i did was get a full panel before i started. everything since has been comparable
do you get bloods every 2 months or only when something changes
baseline 58
wk 2 61
wk 4 64
wk 6 67
wk 8 66
wk 10 65 (held dose from wk 7)anyone have before and after numbers they are willing to post
the FLOW result is why my nephrologist changed her position on this entirely
update from 19 months ago: a1c down, apob unchanged, and i am genuinely annoyed about the apob
nobody here is reading your bloods as a clinician. we are reading them as people who have had a lot of bloods
post the numbers
thyroid moving slightly is common enough that i would repeat it before doing anything
unrelated but alt and ast coming down as you lose liver fat is common and is a good sign
homa-ir is fasting glucose times fasting insulin over a constant. the constant differs by unit system
my numbers: a1c and triglycerides both moved a lot, ldl barely moved at all
