QuestionHi Samantha, I just came across this site and I love it. I have been feeling super tired for the last few months and just had blood work done. I was wondering what these tests were and just how concerned I should be with the results? Do you have any idea's on questions I might be asking my Doctor? Any information or advice would be greatly appriciated. Triglycerides 206, Cholesterol 221, WBC 11.6, #NEUT 7.0, %MONO 5.3, %EO 0.6, HCT 37.7, PLT 414, ~
AnswerHi Melissa, I'd be glad to try and answer your question. All of your lab results that you gave me are normal. Do you happen to know if the doctor checked your thyroid? These tests would be called TSH, Free T4, Total T4, or T3. A common cause of fatigue is a thyroid condition. Did he check your iron/ferritin level? This measures the iron in your blood, and could mean you are anemic.
