I Received my dad's blood work please read!
I got my dad's blood results. He is 56.5 years old. The doctor used a lab called bioreference....i was disgusted when i saw the range for testosterone was 193-740
My dad is on diabetis and cholesterol/blood pressure meds.
anyway....here are the results his doc tested(keep in mind the doc he is going to is the same idiot who told me at 19 that my 277 test level was normal...so gdevine and everyone else....he most likely will not be able to get full comprehensive panels..and my dad doesnt care enough to go to private md labs...however maybe we can get an endo to test further)
after reading some labs, if i didnt know better i would say my dad had a pituitary tumor. He had an mri last year though for headaches which came out clear....seeing these labs though im gonna ask for the report.
testosterone 320.4(193-740)
free testosterone serum 1.70(3.84-34.17) his free is nonexistent
percent free test 0.5 (2.0-4.8)
LH 5.6(1.7-8.6)
FSH 23.3 (1.5-12.4) why so high????
prolactin LESS THAN 0.1 (4-15.2) WHY SO LOW?
tsh 2.090 (0.270-4.200)
psa looks awesome at 0.49(<4)
vitamin b12-368(211-911) he is too stubborn to listen to me....
vitamin d 22.4(32-100)....again too stubborn....his idiot doctor finally reccomends 4000 units..which is too low imo....and he doesnt care what i say...but ehre i am taking 5-25 per day depending o nthe day and fine lol.
cholesterol 129(he takes a lot of meds)
triglycerides 124
hdl direct 41
hdl percent 32 (>14)
chol/hdl ratio 3.1 (<7.4)
EVALUATION:: BELOW AVERAGE RISK
LDL?HDL ratio 1.66 (<3.56)
LDL direct 68 (<100)
vldl calc 25 (7-32)
SMALL LDL-P(29).......................20.7 RANGE(>25)
HDL PARTICLE COUNT(29)..........31.1 (>40.0)
PLATELETS 124
HEMOGLOBIN A 1 C 7.1(<5.7)
As stubborn as my dad is I think he is considering test..and I told him only to use shots. Reading the chart that showed he was in the 5th pecentile for his age, and that the average 85-100 year old has a higher level helped.
He also has a big gut that needs improvement ha.
