Hi guys,
I wanted to follow up on my thread.
I have my current labs posted below.
FWIW:
1. At time of these labs I was on TRT for 1 week, so I dont think any significant bearing on the results, though if im wrong one of you will tell me.
2. These labs were ordered from my cardiologist, so it's geared towards that. I dont get the TRT based labs done for another 5 weeks.
All told, numbers got better. I've been on pretty strict diet still. I discovered that im even more carb sensitive than I thought, so I have to be careful of what I eat, how much I eat and when I eat carbs. I do have cheat days though.
Im also low fat.
A1C came down even further. Originally I was a 13. I got it down to a 7 (no meds) and im now a 6.6.
Total cholesterol down 174 to 173
HDL up 53 to 71
LDL down 106 to 90
VLDL 15 to 12
Triglycerides 77 to 59
I dont know if this is really any difference but:
Hemoglobin up 13.6 to 13.8
Hematocrit down 42.3 to 41.2
Thoughts?
