Question 1

My plasma albumin level is 51 g/l, is this too high? male 22, weight 160lbs. 6ft1.

Accepted Answer

Reference ranges for common labs are set so that several percent of healthy people fall outside. You may have been a bit dehydrated, or just in good health.

Question 2

I have calcium level of 10.3, albumin level of 5.1, is the calcium high? i'm 22

Accepted Answer

The level of calcium in the blood moves up and down with albumin, so your calcium is normal.  The albumin level is higher than usual, most likely reflecting mild dehydration.  Have a salty meal and drink water and this should correct.

Question 3

What should i eat if hdl cholesterol is slightly low and albumin level is slightly high?

Accepted Answer

Hdl is not predominantly influenced by diet. Hdl is primarily regulated by genetics but can be increased by exercise, omega 3 fatty acids , weight loss and to a small extent wine .The best way to raise your HDL level is by increasing your aerobic exercise to at least 3-5 times a week for at least 20 minutes. Eat fish  high in omega 3 fatty acids, epa and dha or take  omega 3 capsules.

Question 4

I had blood work done. my albumin level was just a little high. also my albumin/globulin ratio was just a little high. is that normal?

Accepted Answer

Slightly elevated Albumin level is not considered abnormal. Labs are best interpreted in the context of signs/symptoms.

Question 5

Albumin levels high? i am a 40 year old male.  i recently took a urine test and saw that my albumin levels were high according to the lab results chart.  the albumin level was 47.  my doctor stated that they are a little elevated, but no to be concerned.

Accepted Answer

Albumin is a protein.  In general if our blood level of Albumin is high, it means we have good nutrition.  Please be sure that you didn't have too much protein in your urine however, as this can mean that you have kidney disease which is more likely in you since you have diabetes.  Please be sure the protein in your urine was not high.

Question 6

I just had some lab work done. what would cause a low serum albumin level, high alpha 1 and 2 and high c-reactive protein and low vit d?

Accepted Answer

Generally, decreased Albumin and increased globulins are seen in inflammatory conditions, acute or chronic. The fever ; high CRP also support this. Of note, other conditions may cause this including cancer, but still, the most likely explanation is infection/inflammation. A low vitamin d level may be caused by inadequate intake, no sun exposure, absorbtion problem, kidney disease, obesity.

Question 7

My cmp blood test says my albumin level is 5.8 g/dl (says normal range is 3.6-5.1) what does this mean? should i be concerned and get second opinion?

Accepted Answer

The only cause of increased Albumin is dehydration; there is no naturally occurring hyperalbuminemia.

Question 8

Globulin level: 4.5, albumin level: 3.9, total protein: 8.4, albumin/globulin ratio: 0.9, ast: 68, alt: 105. what do these levels mean?

Accepted Answer

You need to tell us why was this test done. Did you have some complaints? Once we know your symtoms, if any, it is easier to interpret your lab results. Your liver enzymes are slightly high and so is the globulin level which can occur due to liver problems like Hepatitis. Your doctor needs to recheck these labs in another one or two months and find the cause?hepatitis?

Question 9

Accepted Answer
