Introduction

When you receive your lab test report, the medical terms and numbers can feel overwhelming. Don’t worry — you’re not alone. Here’s a simple guide to help you understand some of the most common terms.

Common Terms in Blood Reports

• WBC (White Blood Cells): Fights infections; high count may mean infection.

• Platelets: Help in clotting; low levels increase bleeding risk.

• Blood Glucose: Indicates sugar levels; high levels may suggest diabetes.
