Blood Work Report Numbers ?

[Guest guest]

I just got my blood work back from the lab which was ordered by my

Rhumatologist.

I have several numbers which are not within the norm. Some too high, most too

low.

 

** I need help with some of the abbreviations.

 

If someone would write to me off list that would be great! Or I can post them

on the

list, I don't mind.

 

P.S. The Rhumatoid doc told me that if any of my numbers were abnormal he

would call

me right away. At first the office told me that they were " too " busy to send

me

copies of my blood work and I would have to wait for my appointment. SIX WEEKS

!

It took me two weeks of FAXes and phone calls to get my blood work results.

 

Even with abnormal numbers this doc doesn't care too much about hurrying to

help.

I had picked this Rhumatologist because he was advertised as using herbs rather

than

meds, but both in his office and his written response to my questions he wants

me

to take prescriptions to sleep which I am not at all interested in doing.

 

I am so glad I have a great acupuncturist.

 

**Would it be worthwhile to take these blood reports with me

 

to acupuncture or are they extraneous to TCM ?

 

 

Thanks so much for any help anyone can offer with my blood reports !!!!

Please post them on the list if you don't mind as there are some

members who are pre-med and others who are interested in learning all

they can about various schools of healing.

 

Thanks,
