ApoB over LDL-C and i will keep saying it
I have had 24 orders now and I keep a table, so here is the honest summary rather than a vibe.
Material has been consistent. Communication has not. Shipping has varied by about 38 days on nominally the same lane, which matters more in summer than in February.
The independent number came back 96.8% against a claimed 97.2%, which I read as agreement rather than a discrepancy — inter-lab variance on this assay is a point or two either way and treating one lab as ground truth is how people end up in pointless arguments with vendors.
Batch number is in the comments. Ask if you want the method.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Strongly agree. ALT is where you catch the liver story early.
Baseline ferritin: 99.3. Week 59: 94.2. Same lab, fasted, same time of day. Trend matters.
I am going to push back on this slightly.
Ferritin tanked from 6 to 27. Small appetite, reduced iron intake, nobody was testing it until I asked.
ALT is where the fatty-liver story shows up first
Crossposting this to c/meta because the people who need it are not reading this community.
baseline is the most important ferritin measurement, you cannot collect it later
post reference ranges with your numbers, units differ by country and lab
Edit to your parent would help — the concentration you quoted assumes one scenario and you have written another above it.
Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.
baseline is the most important eGFR measurement, you cannot collect it later

Adding to this: ALT is doing more work than the comment implies.
HOMA-IR is crude but free and useful for tracking
Do you have baseline to compare to?
