Diabetes Management Blood Test
Maintaining healthy blood sugar levels is essential to your health. Persistently elevated blood sugar levels may increase your risk of heart disease, kidney damage, and stroke.
This package measures your fasting glucose and HbA1c levels. It also includes a collection of screenings commonly ordered at an annual health visit to help evaluate your overall health by measuring a variety of components including cholesterol and lipids, calcium, electrolytes, as well as liver and kidney function.
If you have been previously diagnosed with diabetes, this screening can be used to monitor aspects of your condition under the supervision of your healthcare provider.
