Lab Results

On Monday, Coby went in for his first round of lab work since starting Dr Sisson's GME protocol. It was 10 days after starting the new medications - including the high dose of Prednisone. The results came back today & even though some were out of range & concerning to myself, according to Dr Sisson, the labs were normal (actually milder than usual changes) expected from Prednisone therapy.

Out of range labs:
WBC 18.4 - high (normal 4.0-15.5)
RBC 4.5 - low (normal 4.8-9.3)
HGB 10.3 - low (normal 12.1-20.3)
HCT 31 - low (normal 36-60)
Neutrophils 15456 - high (normal 2060-10600)
Monocytes 1104 - high (normal 0-840)
Creatinine 0.4 - low (normal 0.5-1.6)
BUN 14 - normal (normal 6-31)
BUN/Creatinine Ratio 35 - high (normal 4-27)
Amylase 248 - low (normal 290-1125)

We continue therapy as planned. More labs to be drawn June 28th.
