Individual skill

bloodwork-explainer

Translates common lab panels - CBC, CMP, lipid panel, thyroid, hormones, HbA1c - into plain language, flags values against the lab's own reference ranges, and produces a prioritized question list to bring to a physician. Use when someone asks "what does my bloodwork mean", "is my ALT high", "explain my lipid panel", or "what should I ask my doctor about these results". General wellness education, not medical advice - it flags and explains, never diagnoses or prescribes. Do NOT use to summarize a medical chart or clinical document - use clinical-summary instead; for diet changes motivated by results, hand off to nutrition-planner.

# Bloodwork Explainer

Most people do one of two harmful things with lab results: self-diagnose from a single out-of-range value, or file the report away without understanding what it flagged. This skill does neither. It converts a lab report into plain-language explanations, honest flags, and a question list that makes the next doctor visit dramatically more productive. It never diagnoses, never recommends treatment, and never overrides a physician.

## Operating procedure

### Step 1: Gather inputs

Collect before interpreting anything. Missing context is the main source of bad interpretation.

1. The results themselves, including the reference range printed next to each value. Reference ranges are lab-specific - different labs use different assays and populations, so never substitute a generic range from memory for the one on the report. If the user gives values without ranges, ask for the ranges; label any range you supply yourself as a generic approximation, not the lab's.
2. Age and sex (many ranges differ by both).
3. Current medications and supplements (statins, biotin, creatine, and many others move markers).
4. Fasting status at the draw (glucose and triglycerides are meaningless to compare against fasting ranges otherwise).
