My dad just got his lab results back today, and knowing him, he’s going to drag his feet before actually seeing the doctor—so I was hoping to get some quick thoughts here. I'll just list the biochemistry since his urinalysis and CBC came back totally normal.

glucose 6.0 ref. 4.4-6.4
creatinine 137 ref. 79-125
urate 456 ref. 182-403
AST 21 ref. 11-38
ALT 17 ref. 12-48
GGT 88 ref. 11-55
potassium 4.1 ref. 3.9-5.1
cholesterol 5.8
triglycerides 2.5

THANKS if anyone wouldn't mind taking a look!🙂

My ALT is at 3, and GGT is sitting at 7. I’ve read online—and my doctor actually told me this back when my ALT was 7 two years ago—that low values don't really matter. Still, seeing them even lower now feels a little weird 🤷. I’m generally healthy; this was just a routine checkup. Everything else looks fine, except for my iron levels, which are pretty low at 9. Just wondering if the low liver numbers are truly nothing to worry about.
thanks🙂
