CEA Your CEA levels are within the normal range. This is a positive result and indicates that there is no evidence of cancer or other medical conditions that could cause elevated CEA levels. It's recommended that you continue to maintain a healthy lifestyle and schedule regular check-ups with your doctor to ensure your overall health and wellbeing. |

CA 19-9 Your CA 19-9 test came back normal, which is a good sign. Research shows that this test can be used to monitor treatment response and recurrence in certain types of cancer, but in your case, there is no need for further concern regarding this particular marker. |

Comprehensive Metabolic Panel 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. |

This test is ideal if you're experiencing unusual symptoms in the vulval area, such as persistent itching, pain, lumps, skin changes, or unusual bleeding. It helps detect early signs of vulval cancer by measuring specific biomarkers in your blood that can indicate cellular changes or potential malignancy. Many people use this test when they have concerning symptoms, a family history of gynecological cancers, or want proactive screening for peace of mind.
You should fast for 12 hours before your blood collection. This means no food or beverages except water for at least 12 hours before testing. Estimated turnaround for results is 3 business days, though if confirmation testing is required, the timeline may be extended.
This comprehensive panel evaluates cancer-related biomarkers including CA 19-9 and CEA, which can be elevated in various cancers and help detect abnormal cell activity. It also includes a Complete Metabolic Profile that assesses liver and kidney function, electrolyte balance, and overall metabolic health, which can be affected by cancer or reveal other underlying conditions. Together, these measurements provide insight into potential cancer markers and your body's overall functioning.
What this means
Your CEA level is slightly elevated above the optimal range. While this is not necessarily alarming, mildly elevated CEA can occur with inflammation, smoking, or benign conditions, though it warrants monitoring to rule out more serious issues. Your doctor may recommend follow-up testing or additional screening.
Recommended actions
Discuss results with your healthcare provider for personalized guidance
Consider follow-up imaging or additional cancer screening if recommended
If you smoke, work on cessation as smoking can elevate CEA levels
Retest in 3-6 months to monitor trends and ensure levels remain stable
