Al Pater blood tests Feb 19 04

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

I had recently had blood tests done. The results are below. Please

provide comments.

My impressions are that:

Testosterone is higher than it has been, consistent with my dreaming

of my wife and I having sex.

TSH is not as high as it averages.

Sodium is a little lower.

Creatine being low suggests that I am not breaking down tissues to

provide an energy source.

Calcium is high, but magnesium is low, so I initiated

supplementation with ~ the RDA of magnesium.

Albumin is marginally lower.

Urine pH was a little lower.

Urine blood is the first occurrence, although limited in amount.

Immune cell levels are close to or at historical lows. They had

been higher the previous blood test in Dec., but my persistent cough

was present at that time.

My hemoglobin levels being lower than in Dec., and I began

supplementing again yesterday with 100 mg/g of ferrous fumarrate

instead

1 + hyochromatic means that the progenitor blood cells show little

red hemoglobin color. 1 + is the lowest hypochromatic level.
