Non fasting blood test: alp 123, potassium 5.2 and glucose 109. is this normal non fast? taking aspirin daily and nitrofurantoin 2-3 times a week.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: The numbers are essentially within normal limits. Upper normal for potassium is 5.1, but due to handling errors, slight elevations are often / usually not a problem, they are an artifact. You may want to repeat the test to recheck the potassium level.
