Is there a website, where I can enter in my recent blood work and it will tell me what it means?

I know blood work is off, have had blood drawn now 3 times.  I have the numbers, and I do have an appointment with a specialist in 3 weeks.

Have left 4 messages for drs nurse, no luck with that, have given up on her.

TIA

I'm sorry you are in a kind of limbo because the dr.'s office has not returned your calls. 

 

You may want to call again and ask for the Office Manager.  Get her name first.

Usually if something is abnormal it will be flagged. I usually just go to Google and type in the results of my tests that are flagged and the information comes up that way.

@happycat You can go to AARP.org/health and find all the info for each catagory of your blood test. You need to click on each item, ie: glucose, potassium etc and it will show ranges etc.

@Trinity11, I tried Google first. To be honest, have been trying for figure this out for days now, since I got paperwork to fill out for my apt at CARTI.

Its very confusing to say the least.

@Big Sister, Thank you, that is a good idea. I may do that tomorrow, if I can't figure any of this out by then.

I think you should look for a new Doctor!!  This is ridiculous. You have a right to a copy of the blood information to take to a new primary care Dr.

I wish I could help you. It may be too personal to share here, though, so I understand.
