What Blood work items recommended to check routinely
I tried searching for this and searching for the term blood work gave me quite a few different things to check. I didn't compile here the most common things, but was wondering about what to check on this Theranos form. I like how they list it all out with prices and caps on some of the pricing. And they are very convenient in my area. As some of you may already know, Theranos is under investigation for rumors of incorrect results. I don't know if that is specific to accuracy or precision. Or both. My last lab results from them are fairly consistent with some of my previous results from other labs so I am not too worried about that right now and will watch to see how the investigation goes.
Anyways. I have attached an image of the form with items that my doctor picked as well as a few that I added such as cholesterol since it is a cheap test. Is this a pretty good check list? Anything huge I am missing? And is there anything I really don't need to check? The Cholesterol, D3, and DHEA are just ones that I am checking as I am using D vitamins and DHEA sups to increase those numbers.
Mostly just wondering if I am missing anything major for routine blood work. My next check will be my first check since starting TRT. Thanks for the input.
