Are you concerned about the potential health complications of diabetes?  Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Diabetes Comorbidity Panel in Houston, TX. There is a strong connection between diabetes, heart disease, and kidney disease.  Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in people with type 2 diabetes.  About 20-40% of diabetics suffer from kidney disease.  In many cases, these conditions may not show obvious symptoms at first.  Identifying these conditions early can help a person work with their doctor to determine the appropriate treatment before they develop serious health complications.

The Diabetes Comorbidity Panel includes:

• Creatinine, Blood: Creatinine is a waste product produced by the muscles that is normally filtered out by the kidneys.
• Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR), Blood: EGFR measures kidney function based on how well they are removing waste products from the blood.
• Albumin, Urine: Albumin (protein) in the urine is a sign that the kidneys are not functioning normally.
• Creatinine, Urine: Measuring urine creatinine levels can help determine how efficiently the kidneys are removing waste products from the blood.
• Albumin/Creatinine Ratio: Elevated albumin/creatinine ratio is an indicator of kidney disease.
• Lipid Panel (Total Cholesterol, LDL, HDL, Triglycerides): Diabetes often causes the lowering of good cholesterol (HDL) and raising of bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides.  This can increase a person's risk of heart disease and events like a heart attack or stroke.  

Blood and urine testing for kidney damage and heart disease are often ordered when someone is diagnosed with diabetes even if they are not experiencing any symptoms.
