Blood test was about two and a half days after rapa dose.
I know i should have gotten hsCRP and not regular CRP, I asked my doctor for hsCRP and he did CRP anyway apparently.
My RDW is always high. Normal high, but still high. I know that ideal is 12-12.5. I also know that for epigenetic tests it has more weight than any of the other biomarkers I tested. It’s the most heavily weighed biomarker for Morgan Levine calculator (according to which my phenoage is 30.6, probably only because my fasting glucose is so low and albumin is high).
My ALP is always also double the ideal like this. Technically not outside the reference range but on the high end. Not sure what’s going on there.
I have given several AIs this info and it tells me to gain weight and get off of rapamycin. It also tells me to lower my melatonin dose to a standard dose of ~10mg. I think these LLMs are biased in favor of conventional medical literature, not more fringe, cutting edge protocols like we like. Caloric restriction and rapamycin are the most tried and true longevity protocols yet they seem to be against both in my case. AI doesn’t like my Lymphs but I think that’s just a common side effect of Rapamycin.
My mother died at 68 and father died at 74 both of cancer, and I have had one form of cancer in my 20s and have had several benign tumors so I really need to be aggressive with my protocol.
I’m open to any suggestions here. If there’s any other blood tests I really need let me know, I already know i needed hsCRP and not CRP though.
