LABS
Laboratory evaluation of blood, respiratory swabs, urine and such can be useful for diagnosing and monitoring disease conditions. Dr Gryder also examines your results with the goal of OPTIMAL function. Most doctors have no comment if the lab results are "WNL" (within normal limits) but you can do better than the average American.
Please bring any lab results with you, no matter how old. It is your legal right to get copies of your medical records from each and every doctor or hospital you have used. Ask for copies and sign the release form whenever you're at a doctor's office to shorten the wait time. Knowing your historic "normal" will help the doctor understand the changes.
Dr Gryder uses Quest, Diagnostechs, Spectracell, 23andMe and others. Often these tests are not covered by insurance but they can be worth it to get the answers you need.
