Blood Test Analysis

ROBDOLPHIN66

I received some blood test results today.
There are a few elements that are outside of the "normal" ranges.
Is there any kind of free online tool that can give me further information as to what these results actually mean and maybe more specific guidance as to what I can do to try and get them down?

Thank you

The best way to get them interpreted is to speak to your doctor.

Thank you. I did speak to her and know basically what they mean.

I was hoping to get a bit more information particularly where the healthy ranges are very wide and also to see if there was anything else that I can do to improve them.

Just Google the specific test name and lots of information will appear,especially where a particular disease such as diabetes,kidney function, hypo/hyper-thyroidism is a possibility.

The problem with just using Google is choosing reliable answers from the self-promoting answers you'll find. Labtestsonline.org.uk is at least a reputable site to start with.
