See below: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, it depends on the normal range of the lab where test was done. If you have no symptoms, do not worry.

Not much: Isolated blood work with no context has limited value and only allows for speculation. While your values look normal they will only make sense for the ordering physician in the context of your detailed history and physical exam.
