I need to get blood work done too. From what I've read, we need to ask for a Comprehensive Metabolic Panel. These tests help screen for a wide variety of problems. The glucose test in particular helps screen for diabetes mellitus and pre-diabetes.
* Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT or GTT)
* Calcium
Protein tests
Tests of protein levels in the blood help screen for both kidney and liver disorders.
* Human serum albumin
* Serum total protein (TP)
Electrolytes
Electrolyte levels and the balance among them are tightly regulated by the body. Both individual values and ratios among the values are significant; abnormalities among either can indicate problems such as an electrolyte disturbance, acid-base imbalance, or kidney dysfunction.
* Sodium
* Potassium
* Carbon dioxide (CO2)
* Chloride
Kidney function assessment
* Blood urea nitrogen (BUN)
* Creatinine
Liver function assessment
* Alkaline phosphatase (ALP)
* Alanine amino transferase (AST or SGPT)
* Aspartate amino transferase (ASP or SGOT)
* Bilirubin
Also ask for a Blood lipid test. This tests blood fats such as cholesterol and triglycerides. I don't know what kind of steroids you plan to cycle, but some are known to have negative effects on cholesterol.
And last but certainly not least, we need to ask for a Testosterone Test. The clinical name is "The FSH Test". It measures the level of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in your blood.
