    Strange blood test

    I guys never been over this side of the forum before but I went to docs today and she said I got to have bloods drawn and gave me a printout to take to the hospital tomorrow morning.
    This seems strange but they are testing for the following:
    oglucose
    oglandular fever screen (IM screen)
    ourea and electrolytes
    oLFT
    oTFT'S (diagnostic)
    o testosterone (with SHBG)

    Any reason why they would test for testosterone levels ?

    It was just a regular check up/ physical aswell.
    Got me a little worried

    Depends on what u told the doctor...

    Did you talk about fatigue, sleep issues, mood changes, energy, etc etc? Tons of reasons a doctor might check for testosterone , especially if you're over 40.

    I'm 28
    We spoke about mood etc sleep patterns
    And then she went along the lines of depression and that's certainly not it I'm happy in myself I have no reason to be blue.

    Not out of the ordinary considering the conversation, a full hormone panel should be in order..
