Re: interpreting lab work?

[Guest guest]

Hey Tom,

Post the results- I will try and help with what I can.

The metabolic profile I reckon is Urine? Is it a specific one or just a

general- They have different urine tests so I don't recall.

Which stool test did you have? The Random collection? Did you use any

probitics while doing the test?

There are many ins and out to slaiva adrenal testing. These results are usually

quite subtle- I am still learning about this myself. Have you done any urine

testing for cortisol too?

Their consult line is great. I think you should totally take advantage of it.

My integrative doc had to do this for me (she is super proficient at reading

results although my results were super cryptic!) I would totally first call

Genova and then post results but that's up to you.

We use many labs --including Genova - at the clinic where I work & ALL of them

have " technical support -- a Dr or Dr.s that will review the resluts with the

physician to explain what they mean ...my boss usually uses this service for the

first 1/2 dozen or so tests he gets from a lab ...and any time results come up

that seem " unusual " . hth, gisele

p.s...the consult with the lab usually only takes 15-20 minutes...the ND could

do it instead, tho I believe the Dr that ordered the test would need to

authorize it...

Yeah, The patient can't get the info from them a doc has to do it!
