Did you receive report?
Brief Answer:
Just a black "image"
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I'm sorry, it's just a black image. Nothing can be seen.
If you find it difficult, you can alternatively type the results exactly as you see them on the report. Don't forget to include the units (for example mg/L)

Brief Answer:
It's perfectly normal
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I've got it this time. I've seen the full report. The only somewhat worrisome result is your blood glucose value which is higher than normal and defines the "impaired fasting glucose" condition. An oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) would be needed to exclude diabetes.
Regarding your BUN and creatinine values both are normal. Their ratio is also normal. Your estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is also normal for your age and you've got nothing to worry about. Just do the OGTT, which is not urgent.
Kind Regards!
