Bloodwork Results, Mostly Good. And... Work to Do.

Humbling. Still, some big wins like blood glucose. The numbers since 2025 (this time last year) with GLP-1 started April 2026. Blood Glucose - IMPROVED. Now within range -14% (103 to 89) YAY. However A1C is 5.7% - the beginning number for pre-diabetes (more work to do there) Kidneys, proteins and electrolytes all within range. YAY. No indication of anemia. Biggest gains 30% reduction in overall Cholesterol. Especially Triglycerides. I have DNA for heart related issues and high cholesterol even with a good diet. And it still remains the biggest challenge because even with this reduction LDL is high 175 but it’s down a couple points from 2025. HDL cholesterol is stable. Hormone panel. Thyroid is mixed. T4 and TSH are improved while TPO antibodies are elevated. Hashimoto’s was an issue for me a decade ago. I thought I handled it. More to do. I will be discussing the details with my doctor this week. Looking forward to that. Getting clearer every day. 🥰

   Yea for improvement and you can get the ones that need improvement there. I can say allow time the AC1 will get there as mine did in time. I was at goal weight long before my Ac1 was below pre diabetes. But Sept of this year it happened for me. Not sure if it was adding Mot-c or just needed more time. I will be cheering for you

6. Belle member

   @member yes when I saw that happen for you I got very inspired

7. Belle member

   @member so many improvements and SO many things to be thankful for!

8. Belle member

   Good work @member! I know your pain in trying to get all those numbers to balance out like they should. Keep up the good work - I know you’ll get where you want to be!

9. Belle member

   @member am Cheering you on to that Finsh line and to rid that label

10. Belle member

    @member Lange Thank you. I was a little disappointed honestly. But I’m trying to see the big picture. The numbers have significantly improved. And, it takes time (I have had these issues for years).

11. Belle member

    @member Maybe mot c would help. I’ll keep investigating

12. Belle member

    @member I have pretty much cut out the sugar in my diet months ago. But it must take more.

13. Belle member

    @member thanks for being so positive and supportive

14. Belle member

    @member me too I rarely have sugar or sodas unless it like fruits that have natural sugars as I do eat a lot of fruit.

15. Belle member

    Great job. I have decided I'm going to do a blood panel every 3 months.

16. Belle member

    @member that’s the perfect cadence

17. Belle member

    @member don’t if that was what help me or not but I had started it 3 months before labs and they came back below. I had done some 6 months prior to the start of mots c I know it helps with insulin and everything I found makes me think it what helped me

18. Belle member

    @member thank you for sharing that.
