c/bloodwork · created 12 Nov 2023
Baseline panels, ApoB, A1c, liver enzymes. Track it, do not guess.
how much of what we believe about ferritin actually comes from bloodwork threads. I would rather ask a basic question now than get this wrong quietly for two months.…
The one-line version is the title: lipids are not what most of this community thinks it is. The rest is why. Brought the whole set to my clinician rather than one…
Posting this as a discussion rather than a claim: ALT — 4 things I got wrong before I got it right. Why so many single values look alarming and turn out to be nothing.…
ferritin — 15 things I got wrong before I got it right. It is the sort of thing everyone half-believes and nobody writes down. ApoB counts atherogenic particles rather…
Send the vial, get the number. Third-party purity and identity testing, results published to you regardless of what they say.
Test a vialSponsoredEst. 1998. ISO 9001 and cGMP, 1,500+ staff, 200+ patents. There is a fair chance the vial you are about to send for testing started here. Batch-specific COA as standard.

stalled for 15 weeks at 1.7mg and I refuse to panic this time. It is the sort of thing everyone half-believes and nobody writes down. The numbers the title promised,…
Question in the title, detail here: can we stop arguing about ApoB until somebody posts a number. Reference intervals are typically the central 95% of a reference…
baseline labs are the most under-discussed thing on this board. Making the case below, and I expect to lose some of it in the comments. Time of day, fasting state,…
the baseline labs question that gets asked weekly, answered properly. Change my mind, genuinely — I have no stake in being right about this. Repeat testing before…
reading eGFR threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly. I have gone back and forth on this for months. Different laboratories use different assay platforms with…
can we stop arguing about eGFR until somebody posts a number. If this has been answered properly somewhere, link me and I will delete. Draw at the same point in the…
tried ApoB for 18 weeks. here is what happened, which sounds obvious until you try to state the evidence for it. To save the first four comments: 18 weeks. Compared two…
the ApoB thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down — a position I have arrived at slowly and would like tested. Took a baseline the week before starting…
Something I keep coming back to: nobody warned me about reflux and I would have liked the warning. Added ApoB to the panel after a thread here. It told me something the…
how much of what we believe about A1c actually comes from ferritin threads, and I want the answer with the reasoning attached rather than just the conclusion. Compared…
Vendor-level purity averages over time, built from independent results rather than vendor claims. Transparent methodology, open dataset.

switched from 1.7mg to 2.4mg and reflux got better, not worse. It is the sort of thing everyone half-believes and nobody writes down. The numbers the title promised,…
baseline labs: the version I wish someone had shown me in week 1. Posting the boring middle of the process, because the internet is full of the start and the end and…
51 weeks on 1.7mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring, logged the same way every week so the comparison is at least internally fair. 51 weeks and 1.7mg — those are…

stalled for 15 weeks at 15mg and I refuse to panic this time, which sounds obvious until you try to state the evidence for it. Numbers, in the order they matter: 15…
ALT is not what most of this community thinks it is. That is the post. The justification is underneath. Time of day, fasting state, hydration and recent exercise all…
anyone else notice lipids kicking in around week 9. Numbers below. Ask me the boring questions, they are the useful ones. Reference intervals are typically the central…
stalled for 13 weeks at 2.4mg and I refuse to panic this time. I have gone back and forth on this for months. 13 weeks and 2.4mg. Those are measured, not estimated, and…
is it normal to get muscle cramps at week 90, logged the same way every week so the comparison is at least internally fair. Different laboratories use different assay…
What to measure before you start, what to re-measure, and how to interpret movement without panicking. ApoB over LDL-C, HOMA-IR as a crude free tool, ALT and the fatty-liver story, eGFR noise during rapid loss, and the deficiencies that a 1,100-calorie appetite will hand you.
Independent HPLC and mass spec. The number you get is the number they found.
