Started a couple hours ago but have a few questions about some labs done Fri., 01/27. Amongst others ...
HIV 1+2, Total Routine. Is this an antibody test OR a follow-up test, like a pcr is to a Hep antibody?
Bilirubin, Total and Direct Routine
Liver Function Profile Routine - which is the same as a liver panel? If so isn't bilirubin included in one? Then why would they redundantly include a stand alone Bilirubin test?
Under my profile is a picture (scan) of a test called Comp. Met Profile, it's the second one, top row .. is this the same as a Liver Panel?
Uric Acid Routine. Presume it's an indirect check on kidney functions? Is it commonly give for forming baselines? Wouldn't the Liver Panel do that?
Thanks everyone.
