Hi,
How are you? Can you re-post the laboratory results again? Laboratory results are usually discussed by the attending physician with the patient on the follow-up consultation. But will try to help. Hope to hear from you soon.
Well, my doctor doesn't test much, and I got these labs from a site that you can pull them from the internet, so I haven't even seen her about them yet, nor do I want to. I am seeing another doctor next week. My doctor doesn't seem to want to get much done, so here is all I have, and thank you:I
VITD25-45.0 reference range is 30.0-80.0
THYROXENE FREE-1.20-reference range is 0.58-1.64
NA-139 reference range is 133.145
K-4.1 reference range is3.3-5.0
CL-106 reference range is 101-111
BUN-15 reference range is 6-23
CREAT-.81 reference range is 6-23
GLU R-172 reference range is70-199
CALCIUM-9.0 reference range is 8.6-10.3
AST-87 reference range is 0-47 (seems high)
ALP-114 reference range is 39-117
PROT TOT-6.1 reference range is 6.4-8.3 (seems low)
BILI T-0.7 reference range is 0.0-1.3
CO2-27 reference range is 22-32
ALT-85 reference range is 0-47 (seems high)
ALB-3.3 reference range is 3.4-5.0 (seems low)
TSH-0.57 reference range is 0.50-5.00
TT3-200-reference range is 90-180 (seems high)
Thank you very much
Hi,
The rest of the laboratory results were normal except for elevated AST, ALT and TT3. AST (aspartate aminotransferase) and ALT are enzymes used to diagnose and monitor liver diseases. AST is found in high amounts in heart muscle and liver and skeletal muscle cells. Diseases that affect liver cells increase the levels of AST. However, increased levels of AST alone do not specifically indicate liver disease because it may rise during pregnancy and after exercise. Alanine transaminase (ALT), on the other hand, is an enzyme found in the highest amounts in the liver. If there was injury to the liver, there is a release of the substance into the blood. This can be due to any of the following: acute pancreatitis, celiac disease, Cirrhosis, liver necrosis, Hepatitis (viral, autoimmune), liver ischemia, liver disease or use of drugs that are poisonous to the liver. Triiodothyronine is the active thyroid hormone, and is also known as T3. Total T3 is typically elevated in hyperthyroidism. Remember that normal range can vary according to a number of factors, including age and gender. The normal value ranges may also vary slightly among different laboratories. It is best that you talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results. Take care and hope this helps.
