abnormal bloodwork results?
Posted , 1 user is following.
Hi! I'm not sure if this is the right discussion for this, but it seems from a brief google search a lot of the abnormal test results have to do with my kidneys. I am 20 and have PCOS and had very high DHEA-S and testosterone, and after taking birth control both are in normal range However, while testing these my endocrinologist ordered other tests with the DHEA-S and testosterone, and I don't know what they mean and if they are worrying. My endo didn't say anything about them except that we should watch the low CO2. There are a few that are just on the end of the range, and I don't know if that is worrying or it's fine unless they are seriously out of the reference range? Basically, I have consistently had a slightly elevated WBC, low CO2 of 20 (range 22-29), low potassium of 3.5 (range 3.5-4.5), high chloride of 107 (range 98-106), low A/G ratio of 1 (range 1.1-2.3), low BUN of 6 (range 7-26), and three midnight salivary cortisol test's ranging from .03-.06 (this seems really low! endo said it's fine but I saw online it shouldn't be below .1?). If anyone has any insight into what these mean or if I should be concerned please let me know! In terms of general symptoms I am very tired until 8 or 9 at night even with 9 hours of sleep, I am always cold, I get slightly dizzy when I stand up, and I get randomly nauseous or feverish. Thanks!
