Shot day Monday report relevant to baseline bloodwork: Week 43.

Agreed on the substance. I would put less weight on the timescale, because two months of anything is not enough to distinguish a trend from a wobble.

Agreed, and reference ranges are laboratory-specific.

This answered a question I did not know how to ask. I will report back once I have actually tried it.

Pushing back on VendorMark here. I think the framing smuggles in the conclusion. Ask it the other way round and the obvious answer reverses, which usually means the question is doing the work.

The figures, for anyone assembling their own picture. One habit that pays for itself: post the method alongside the number. A figure without its method cannot be checked, and an unchecked figure is how this community accumulates folklore.

Moderator note: good thread. Keeping it here rather than moving it, because the question is general enough to be useful. Carry on.
