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.

HS CRP

Insights Insights

The HS CRP level is high. This indicates an increased level of C-reactive protein, which is a marker of inflammation in the body. Research shows that elevated HS CRP levels may be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and other chronic conditions. It's recommended that you discuss these results with your doctor to further evaluate the underlying cause of the inflammation and determine appropriate treatment options.

Consider retesting in 1 to 2 weeks to exclude a benign transient elevation in the baseline CRP value secondary to infection or inflammation. >10.0 Persistent elevation, upon retesting, may be associated with infection and inflammation.

LD

Insights Insights

Your LD test results are normal, which means the level of lactate dehydrogenase (an enzyme found in many body tissues) in your blood falls within the healthy range for someone of your age and sex. Research shows that LD levels can sometimes be elevated in certain diseases, such as liver disease or muscle damage, but in your case, there's no cause for concern.

What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're currently being monitored for cancer, have completed cancer treatment and need ongoing surveillance, or have elevated risk factors that require tracking tumor markers over time. It helps detect early signs of tumor growth, monitor how well your treatment is working, and provides peace of mind through regular tracking of important cancer markers. Many people use this comprehensive panel to stay proactive about their cancer monitoring between oncology appointments.

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 beverages except water during that time. This fasting requirement ensures accurate glucose and metabolic measurements. Estimated turnaround for results is 4 business days, though additional confirmation testing may extend this timeline if needed.

What's included in this test?

Hs CRP Alpha Fetoprotein, Tumor Marker Ca 19-9 GGT LD Sed Rate By Modified Westergren CEA

This comprehensive panel monitors multiple tumor markers including CEA, CA 19-9, and AFP to detect various cancer types and track tumor activity. It also measures LDH and GGT (enzymes that can indicate tissue damage or liver involvement), inflammation markers (CRP and sed rate), and complete metabolic and blood count panels to assess your overall health and how your body is responding. Together, these measurements provide a complete picture of tumor marker trends and your general wellness during cancer monitoring.

What happens after I get my results?
You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your tumor markers and related biomarkers mean for your current health status. These notes include personalized recommendations on lifestyle factors that may support your health, which markers need closer attention, and guidance on when to discuss results with your oncologist. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track your tumor markers over time using our trends feature, which is especially valuable for monitoring treatment effectiveness or detecting changes early.
When will I get my results?
Your results will be available in approximately 4 business days after your blood sample is collected. In some cases, if confirmation testing is required to verify any findings, the turnaround time may be extended slightly. You'll be notified as soon as your complete results are ready to review.
Who should consider getting this test?
This test is important for anyone currently undergoing cancer treatment who needs to monitor how well therapy is working, people who have completed cancer treatment and require ongoing surveillance, and individuals with a history of elevated tumor markers. It's also valuable for those with strong family histories of cancer who want proactive monitoring, or anyone whose doctor has recommended regular tumor marker tracking.
What do elevated tumor markers mean?
Elevated tumor markers can indicate active cancer, tumor growth, or recurrence, but they can also be elevated due to non-cancerous conditions like inflammation, liver disease, or benign tumors. A single elevated result doesn't necessarily mean cancer is present or has returned. That's why tracking trends over time is so important and why any concerning elevations should be discussed with your oncologist for proper interpretation and follow-up imaging or testing if needed.
How can I naturally support my health during cancer monitoring?
Focus on eating a nutrient-rich diet with plenty of colorful fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and anti-inflammatory foods like fatty fish, berries, and leafy greens. Prioritize quality sleep, manage stress through gentle activities like walking or meditation, and stay physically active within your capabilities. Avoid smoking and limit alcohol consumption, stay well-hydrated, and maintain open communication with your healthcare team about any new symptoms or concerns.
What is CEA and why does it matter?
CEA (Carcinoembryonic Antigen) is a protein that can be elevated in several types of cancer, particularly colorectal, lung, breast, and pancreatic cancers. While it's not specific enough for initial cancer diagnosis, it's extremely valuable for monitoring known cancers and detecting recurrence after treatment. Tracking CEA levels over time helps your medical team understand if treatment is working or if cancer activity is changing.
How often should I retest my tumor markers?
Testing frequency depends on your specific situation and your oncologist's recommendations. During active cancer treatment, tumor markers are often monitored every 2-3 months to assess treatment response. After completing treatment, testing may be done every 3-6 months for the first few years, then less frequently as you remain cancer-free. Your doctor will create a personalized monitoring schedule based on your cancer type, stage, and individual risk factors.
What should I do if my tumor markers are rising?
If your tumor markers show an upward trend, contact your oncologist promptly to discuss the results. They may recommend additional imaging studies, physical examination, or more frequent monitoring to determine the cause. Rising markers don't always mean cancer recurrence, they can sometimes be affected by infections, inflammation, or other benign conditions. Your doctor will interpret the results in the context of your complete medical history and determine the appropriate next steps.
