Default fasting tests and blood tests - help?

Hi,

I've just changed doctors (well, a while ago actually) and they still don't have my records. So, the practice nurse said they would do all my bloods.

I can go into the local hospital in the morning to get it done. They are doing the following:

FBC
U/E
Glucose
LH
FSH
Oestrogen
Testosterone
Fasting Lipids

Does this sound right to you all?

Plus, she said I had to fast overnight. So what does that really mean? What time should I last eat? And is there anything I should be avoiding eating today that will affect the results?

Any advice would be great!

Thanks
Jennyx

Default

an important test along with glucose is insulin. that can tell alot more than just glucose for us pcos'ers/

also get a thryoid if you havent already..you want tsh , free t3 and free t3..not just total t3 and t4..

lets see what else.. perhaps cortisol and dhea as well..good luck xox jenn
