Guest guest Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Well I went because I wasn't feeling well ... and was blaming it on my Graves disease ... I've been tired ... and haven't been able to drag myself to the gym since about the second week of last month. I was doing so good ... going daily ... and trying to lose weight ... and get in shape ... Re: blood work results ...

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 The BUN has to do with your kidneys. One of your liver enzymes is out of whack, but I wouldn't venture a guess to say why. Your bad cholesterols (LDLs) need to come down. Of course the doc has your TSH circled, but he wouldn't run your Free T3, so we don't know where you stand here. You can have a perfectly normal Free T4, but may not have enough T3. The Total T3 simply doesn't tell much. Have you called the doctor to question him/her about your results? This wouldn't be much fun to have to wait this long to find out why your results are abnormal on some things. blood work results ... Here is a scanned copy of my blood work ...

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 The caffeine in the coffee could have affected the results. Usually when they say fasting they mean water only.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2004 Report Share Posted August 14, 2004 I didn't know they were going to do all the blood work they just sent me over ... I told them that I'd had black coffee (no sugar) and they said it was ok? Re: blood work results ... The caffeine in the coffee could have affected the results.
