I actually stumbled into this routine by accident. It just stuck because I dealt with a nasty bout of mono during my junior year of high school, and my doctor suggested I get my bloodwork done once a year just to keep an eye on my ALT and AST levels. There was one time when I was working two jobs and my liver enzymes went totally haywire; my doctor figured it was just the physical exhaustion. So now, I make sure to get a checkup at least once a year.
Thanks again

I’ve been dealing with low blood pressure, and I also had surgery for endometriosis about a year ago. Just had my follow-up checkup recently, and everything looks good.

👋Patrick Carter, thanks for the help.

Maria Grant42 said:Your GGT, phosphatase, and creatinine levels are barely even down; they’re basically negligible at this point. Just compare them to your next round of labs if the deviation gets any more significant.

What about these non-segmented ones in the Democratic Party results? The upper limit is 2, but I'm sitting at a 9. What does that even mean? I couldn't find anything on the internet.

What about my test results? Is anyone going to comment on them 🤷?

My blood work looks mostly fine, except my non-segmented neutrophils are at 9 in the Democratic Party report, while the normal range is 0-2.
In my biochemistry, creatinine is 62 (63 - 107), GGT is 7 (9 - 35), and Alkaline Phosphatase is 43 (54 - 119).
What could this mean?

I’d suggest diving into the forum posts regarding introduction to natural cosmetics first. I know scrolling through over a hundred pages feels daunting, but there is some seriously interesting stuff in there.
Lela and Merlin always provide solid advice on using natural products, because even though they're natural, they aren't entirely risk-free.
