Ask ordering Dr.: One's ordering doctor can help, as numbers are just numbers. Without details and the whole picture, such as why was labwork done, numbers cannot say much. There is little meaning without the whole picture such as a patient's timeline of the disease of concern, the ups and downs of lab results over the years, his past or present meds, other disorders past and present, any recent illnesses, etc...
