Hi, my name is Jessica. I am new to this board. But I need some help ! I know there is something more wrong with me than fibromyalgia. The doctors know it too! But I have not been diagnosed yet. I had a "flare" after I gave birth to my first child. It was a c-section. I got a staph infection from that and it last for months and months. But now I have all of this blood work that doesnt make sense to me. I search online all day and crazy things run through my head. Some said possibilities of lupus, RA and bunches of more. Would anyone be willing to go through my lab results with me??? thank you so much

LABS

CRP QUANT. 3.1
 
:) Yup, just be sure to list your lab's reference ranges. We'll need the reference numbers because labs often differ on what's "normal". It'll be on your paperwork.
 
Ok I Added Some Of The Blood Work. I Have Pages And Pages And Pages Of It So I Spared You :) But I Put The Name...what My Result Was And Then The Ranges. I Look Forward To You All Helping Me!!! Oh And The Parvo B19 Test Was Extremely High. I Was In The Hospital For A Odd Rash. The Five Days That I Was Admitted They Couldnt Figure It Out. They Must Of Thought It Was FiftHs Disease At First Because Of The B19 Test But The Igm Didnt Come Out High So That Ruled That Condition Out. Anyone That Has Any Suggestions On Why I Could Consider As A Diagnosis Please Share! Thank You

Only a doctor can decipher all these numbers and find a diagnosis for you, but I can tell you what little I know from having a few of these tests done myself. If you find your doctor hard to talk to, I'd recommend you find another. Docs are just like people ;) they come in all shapes and sizes and personalities. Find the right one for you.

Something that jumps to my mind reading your post is postpartum thyroiditis. Untreated it can cause unusually high cholesterol. Has anyone checked your thyroid levels?


The D-Dimer tests for blood clotting problems, like embolisms or thrombosis in a leg. Clots can cause heart attack or stroke. I don't know what your elevated amount means but I do know high triglycerides can cause a "false positive" on a D-Dimer. So maybe that's why it's high.

Your WBC count and WBC differentials (Nuet, Mono and Mono%, Seg, lymph) are generally elevated. That's typical for an infection.

Your SED rate or ESR which tests for inflammation is near normal. SED and Rheumatoid Factor (RF) are the most common tests for RA.

"TRIGLYCERIDES 1429 0-149"
1429? Is that accurate or a typo? Holy Moly that's high.

The CRP Q and CRP Ultra (also called HS-CRP) both check for inflammation, the "ultra" version specifically screens for cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Less than 1.0mg = Low Risk for CVD
1.0-2.9mg = Medium Risk for CVD
Greater than 3.0mg High Risk for CVD

Your CRP Ultra was 18. If you're not already, you should be seeing a cardiologist. Your Glucose Serum (110) suggests you're already in pre-diabetes. (100 to 125 is considered high risk for type 2 diabetes)

The high Urine RBC (red blood cell) means you have blood in your urine. RBCs ususally come from things like injury, kidney infection, kidney stones, inflammation in the kidneys etc. The Leuk Esterase urine test looks for white blood cells WBC (rather that RBC) and is used to test for infection. I don't know what "large" means. I always thought this was a postive/negative type of test? WBC/HPF also looks for WBC in the urine and it looks near normal.
 
Thanks A Lot. What Do You Think About All Of That ? Lol. And Yes The Triglycerides Was Not A Typo. They Dont Know Why They Are So High. Im Not Obese I Weigh 120 Pounds After Having A Child And I Have Always Been Very Small Built. I Just Want To Know What Diseases I Should Be Looking At. Im So Exhausted With All Of This. I Just Want To Be Diagnosed And Treated!
