Comprehensive Metabolic Panel

Insights Insights

Most of your values are within the normal range. This is a positive outcome, indicating that your overall metabolism and organ function are functioning well. However, there are a couple of findings that are worth discussing. Your Urea Nitrogen (BUN) and Creatinine levels are high. Although they are only slightly elevated, it's important to monitor them closely. High BUN and Creatinine levels may suggest reduced kidney function or dehydration. I recommend discussing these results with your healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause and develop an appropriate management plan. It's worth noting that your EGFR, which is a measure of kidney function, is within the normal range. This is reassuring and suggests that your kidneys are still able to filter waste products effectively. Overall, it's important to remember that blood test results need to be interpreted in the context of your overall health and medical history. Your healthcare provider will be able to provide a more comprehensive analysis and guide you further based on these results.

What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're monitoring for early cancer signs, have a family history of cancer, or are tracking your health during or after cancer treatment. It measures tumor markers like CEA and CA 19-9, inflammation levels, blood counts, and metabolic function to help identify changes that might indicate cancer development or progression. Many people use this test for routine screening or to get peace of mind about unexplained symptoms like fatigue, weight loss, or persistent pain.

How should I prepare for this test?

Fasting: 12 hours

You should fast for 12 hours before your blood draw, which means no food or drinks except water during that time. This fasting period ensures accurate glucose and metabolic measurements. Results typically take 3 business days, though some tests may require confirmation testing which could extend the turnaround time.

What's included in this test?

C-Reactive Protein Ca 19-9 Sed Rate By Modified Westergren CEA

This comprehensive panel measures tumor markers (CEA and CA 19-9) that can indicate certain types of cancers, particularly gastrointestinal cancers. It evaluates inflammation through C-Reactive Protein and sedimentation rate, which can be elevated in cancer and other conditions. The complete blood count identifies abnormal cell production, while the comprehensive metabolic panel checks organ function including liver and kidney health, which can be affected by cancer or treatment.

What happens after I get my results?
You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your tumor markers, inflammation levels, and blood counts mean for your overall health. These notes include personalized recommendations like when to follow up with an oncologist, what lifestyle changes may support your health, or whether additional testing is needed. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track your biomarker levels over time using our trends feature, which is especially helpful for monitoring changes during treatment or surveillance.
When will I get my results?
You can expect your results within 3 business days after your blood is drawn. If any of the tests require confirmation or additional analysis, the turnaround time may be extended slightly. You'll receive an email notification as soon as your results are ready to view in your secure online portal.
Who should consider getting this test?
This test is valuable for anyone with a family history of cancer, those experiencing unexplained symptoms like persistent fatigue or weight loss, or individuals who want proactive cancer screening. It's also important for people undergoing cancer treatment or in remission who need regular monitoring of tumor markers and overall health. Those with chronic inflammation or previous abnormal cancer screening results should also consider this comprehensive panel.
What symptoms indicate I may need this test?
Consider this test if you're experiencing unexplained weight loss, persistent fatigue, chronic pain, or digestive issues that haven't improved. Other concerning symptoms include unexplained anemia, frequent infections, night sweats, or changes in bowel habits. While these symptoms can have many causes, this panel helps identify whether cancer-related markers or inflammation levels might be contributing factors.
What are CEA and CA 19-9 tumor markers?
CEA (Carcinoembryonic Antigen) and CA 19-9 (Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9) are proteins that can be elevated when certain cancers are present, particularly gastrointestinal cancers like colon, pancreatic, and stomach cancer. While elevated levels don't definitively diagnose cancer, they help with screening, monitoring treatment effectiveness, and detecting recurrence. These markers can also be slightly elevated in non-cancerous conditions like smoking or inflammation, which is why they're measured alongside other health indicators.
What does high CRP or sedimentation rate mean?
Elevated C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and sedimentation rate indicate inflammation in your body, which can occur with cancer, infections, autoimmune conditions, or chronic diseases. In cancer monitoring, these markers help identify active disease or response to treatment. High inflammation combined with elevated tumor markers may warrant further investigation, while isolated elevation might indicate a different inflammatory condition requiring attention.
How often should I retest these cancer markers?
If you're actively monitoring for cancer or in remission, your doctor typically recommends testing every 3-6 months to track trends in your tumor markers and inflammation levels. For general screening without symptoms or history, annual testing may be sufficient. If you're undergoing cancer treatment, more frequent testing every 6-12 weeks helps monitor treatment effectiveness and disease progression.

What this means

Your CEA level is slightly elevated above the normal range. While CEA can be elevated for various reasons including smoking, inflammation, or certain benign conditions, elevated levels may warrant further evaluation to rule out gastrointestinal cancers or monitor disease progression. This result should be interpreted alongside your other biomarkers and clinical history.

If you smoke, consider a smoking cessation program as smoking can elevate CEA levels

Maintain a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and fiber to support digestive health

Retest in 3-6 months to monitor trends and track whether levels are stable, rising, or decreasing

* Regular blood test results (e.g., CBC) typically start arriving the next business day after sample collection. More complex tests, such as hormone panels, may take up to 10–15 business days due to their complexity.
