Hey fellow Ketofreaks,
I am going to my PA tomorrow, and I have been making a list of tests I want to ask for. Not that I don’t trust my doctor, but our health is up to us right?!
NMR Particle Size (perticularly LDL-C and VLDL
---- I don’t know if that is the correct name for the test, I found it somewhere, but I need my LDL-C and VLDL counts.
Insulin
Ketones
ALT
GGT
Urate
Troponin
T3 / T4
Hba1c
Anything I missed? Thanks in advance!
CAC…
Coronary Artery Calcium. It will tell you that your arteries aren’t blocked. They’ll do a CT scan.

You don’t need troponins done unless you think you’ve had or are having a heart attack.
hmm, I didn’t do much research when putting the list together honestly… I was just looking around for what other people have gotten for tests, and the was one I found on a hearth health site. I will make a note of that, thank you
Thank you as well @Faitmaker I put that on my list to ask about
