Can anyone read this bloodwork request? Please see photo and translate if you can. Thanks in advance.👍

I'm confident it starts with FBC profile then ESR then I lose it!!

[Mary63]

I think there are thyroid function tests in there( tft). Vit D, ANF, can’t decipher much else. Awful handwriting!

[MiloCollie in reply to Mary63]

Yes I SEE that now thanks - shocking yes!

[MiloCollie in reply to MiloCollie]

I've sussed out CPK too, now it's the three words on the left underneath FBC I need. I think bottom left could be rheumatoid factor? 😅

CBC, Profile,ESR, Cold febrile P(protein), CPK, TFT(thyroid function test),) Ferritin, Vit D, Rheumatoid factor, ARF(?)

[fmkkm in reply to LCHRISTOP10]

ANF(ARF)might be anti nuclear factor.Also after the ESR maybe a CRP?

[Rugger]

How about: FBC profile (full blood count); ESR; CRP; globulin / EP (Electrophoresis); CPK; TFT; ferritin; vitamin D; rheumatoid factor; ANF (anti nuclear factor)

Not sure, but I used to work in the NHS and I've got lovely handwriting!

[MiloCollie in reply to Rugger]

Brilliant thanks so much. I did 30 years Nhs and I have lovely writing too. That’s made me laugh!!

[Rugger in reply to MiloCollie]

But perhaps you weren't a doctor - nor was I!

[PMRpro Ambassador]

FBC profile, ESR, CRP, globulins/EP, CPK, TFT, ?ferritin, vit D, rheumatoid factor, ANF

creatine kinase (muscle enzyme not raised in PMR)

immunoglobulins / electrophoresis - blood proteins and differential testing using electrophoresis

Thyroid function tests,

ferritin (I think) - indicator of iron status and also raised in chronic inflammation

antinuclear factor ( southtees.nhs.uk/services/p... )

I worked in the lab years ago, before computers and printers. I would have sent that back with a request for it to be written properly - there is no excuse these days. And like Rugger - I have lovely handwriting too I see we agree on the contents ...

Oh you’re amazing thanks. I don’t want another delay so this helps massively.
