Diabetes Panel Popular

The Diabetes Panel is a comprehensive blood and urine screening designed to help identify diabetes, assess blood sugar control, and detect early signs of diabetes-related complications. Diabetes occurs when the body is unable to properly regulate blood glucose due to insufficient insulin production, ineffective insulin use, or both. Left unchecked, elevated blood sugar can quietly damage vital organs including the kidneys, liver, heart, and blood vessels.

This panel goes beyond a single glucose reading by evaluating both short-term and long-term blood sugar trends, as well as key metabolic and kidney health markers. Whether you are monitoring an existing condition or proactively screening due to risk factors, this test provides a clear, clinically meaningful snapshot of your metabolic health.

What Is Included In This Test?

This Diabetes Panel combines targeted diabetes markers with a full metabolic assessment to give a well-rounded view of your health.

Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)
Measures your average blood sugar levels over the past 8–12 weeks, helping assess long-term glucose control and diabetes risk.

Random Urine Microalbumin
Screens for small amounts of protein in the urine, an early indicator of kidney stress or damage that can occur with diabetes.

Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP)
Includes 14 essential measurements that evaluate blood sugar, kidney function, liver health, electrolyte balance, and overall metabolism:

• Albumin
• Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT)
• Alkaline Phosphatase
• Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST)
• Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN)
• Calcium
• Carbon Dioxide (Bicarbonate)
• Chloride
• Creatinine
• Glucose
• Potassium
• Sodium
• Total Bilirubin
• Total Protein

Calculated Values Included:

• Albumin/Globulin Ratio
• BUN/Creatinine Ratio
• Globulin

Together, these results help identify blood sugar imbalances, monitor diabetes progression, and detect early organ involvement before symptoms appear.

Who Should Consider This Test?

This test is ideal for individuals who want proactive insight into their blood sugar and metabolic health, including those who:

• Have symptoms such as frequent urination, excessive thirst, fatigue, blurred vision, or slow-healing wounds
• Have a personal or family history of diabetes
• Are overweight or have insulin resistance
• Are pregnant or planning pregnancy
• Are managing Type 1, Type 2, or gestational diabetes
• Are living with HIV or taking medications that may affect blood sugar
• Want to monitor kidney, liver, and metabolic health as part of preventive care

Early testing can support timely lifestyle changes and medical guidance before complications develop

What Is Diabetes?

Diabetes is a chronic condition that occurs when the body is unable to properly regulate blood sugar (glucose) levels. This happens when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, produces no insulin at all, or when the body becomes resistant to insulin’s effects. Insulin is a hormone that allows glucose to move from the bloodstream into the cells, where it is used for energy. When this process is disrupted, glucose builds up in the blood, leading to elevated blood sugar levels.

Over time, unmanaged high blood sugar can damage blood vessels and vital organs, including the heart, kidneys, nerves, and eyes. Diabetes may develop gradually and without noticeable symptoms, which is why testing is critical for early detection. Identifying abnormal glucose patterns early allows individuals to take steps—such as lifestyle changes or medical treatment—to better manage blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of long-term complications.
