Mid year panel was disappointing
I loved the overview from that the first blood draws, 2 different days I went. The results were concise and the steps to take were clear. I was pretty diligent for the half year that passed and was looking forward to the results of round 2. When they only took 3 vials, I thought, hmm, thats a lot less than the first time. And when I got the results I understood why. That first draw covered over 100 markers, 15 of mine were out of range. The blood draw at the half year, half the number of markers. Only 1 of my 15 markers out of range were covered on the mid year panel. Did I fix the others, improve them? Who knows. If I had an email that said your midyear test will not cover these out of range but you could add them on for $$$ I'd be little disappointed at the additional cost, but at least I would have had the opportunity to compare the results. I would also love to see a side by side of the numbers, and not just a little horizontal line going up or down. Up isn't always trending the right way, I'd like to know if I am trending the right direction when I click on the marker. For the money, I feel like it should have been the same panel 6 months apart. I learned absolutely nothing at the mid year draw as far as my steps that I took toward a healthier me.
