Hey there. I'm 17 and a half right now, and I'm looking to get an X-ray of my growth plates done. I want to see how much height I can actually squeeze out before puberty wraps up. How do I go about scheduling an appointment and getting the X-ray set up? Any advice?

If neither of those fits, you'll need an evaluation and further follow-up with a hematologist. Definitely check in with your primary care physician first!

Thanks for the reply. Heading to the hematologist tomorrow, so we'll see what's actually going on...

Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) - 42 U/L (normal range 34 - 69 U/L)

My bad, I botched the AST numbers. The actual normal range is 11 - 38.

Hey, I'm 17. Went in for blood work over the last couple of days for a routine physical for a job. The day before yesterday was just a standard CBC and urinalysis, then yesterday they did the differential.

DIFFERENTIAL RESULTS - only listing things outside the normal range
Leukocyte - 2.57 (ref: 4.4 - 11.6) - even lower than the day before
Neutrophil granulocytes - 0.73 (ref: 1.49 - 8.00)
Neutrophil granulocytes - 28.4 rel % (ref rel % 34 - 69)
Lymphocyte - 54.5 rel % (ref rel % 19 - 52)
