Hi,

No one on the forum is medically qualified to advise you on your blood test result.

Reported reference ranges of blood tests can vary between different laboratories, so in order to get clear specific advice you should speak to the doctor who ordered the test.

As previously advised, only a medical professional is qualified to interpret individual blood test results, and comparisons with others are not always helpful. However, when you receive any result, whether in printout form or online via patient access from your GP practice, the result will be accompanied by the laboratory ranges, which should give you an idea of where you stand. Further information on specific tests and optimal levels can be found online from many reputable sources if you wish to investigate further.
