Medical Results

A lot of people don’t go to the doctor until they experience severe discomfort or pain. However, even if you don’t have any definite symptoms, you should contact an expert on health and well-being, such as our experts at the Revive Health Center. Whether you’re feeling fatigued, depressed, or simply less than perfectly well, a simple blood test might reveal the reason.

Your Blood Reflects Your Health

The blood that flows through your body nourishes even the tiniest cells. Your blood should contain appropriate nutrients to feed you. But of course, your body transports hormones through your blood as well. Not every cell will react to every hormone in your blood stream, and that’s intentional. However, if you don’t have enough of a certain type of hormone, then you will probably notice the effects of it.

A simple blood draw is not just helpful when testing for hormone levels. The test can also reveal a variety of diseases as well as your blood sugar level. A blood draw can even help the medical professional diagnose certain types of cancer in their early stages.

Getting a Thorough Analysis

Most doctors’ offices can order a comprehensive exam of your blood for you. However, few doctors are likely to do so without specific indicators. For example, they may check your levels of testosterone if you are a healthy male with a low sex drive. Or they may check your thyroid hormones if you have inexplicably gained a lot of weight lately. However, when you come to the Revive Health Clinic, we can do a comprehensive screening for you.

While you may need a little more blood in order to test for a variety of things, the process for the blood draw remains the same. In fact, it makes sense to test for as many things as possible while you’re already giving us a blood sample anyways.

Interpreting Your Results

A lot of times, doctors might not take action as long as your levels are in the normal range. However, it’s important to take into consideration how you feel. If you’re feeling tired and fatigued, the low normal range for your thyroid hormones may not be good enough for your body. Obviously, a lot depends on your symptoms and on the entire blood panel. After all, it’s possible that there is another reason for your fatigue. At the Revive Health Center, we will help you get your health back. In fact, our goal is for you to achieve optimal health. We know it’s possible!
