Ordering the Diabetes Baseline | Mary Shomon Panel

The Diabetes Baseline | Mary Shomon Panel from ZRT Laboratory helps check two important markers: fasting glucose and hemoglobin A1C. These markers give a clear picture of how your body manages sugar over time and can help spot early changes before symptoms appear. Interestingly, hemoglobin A1C shows your average blood sugar over the past two to three months, not just a single day.

Ordering this panel can help you:

  • Track changes in blood sugar over time for better management.
  • Identify early signs of blood sugar imbalance before symptoms develop.
  • Monitor how well your current plan is working if you are already managing blood sugar.
  • Get a baseline before starting a new diet or exercise routine.
  • Support your doctor in making decisions about your care with clear, measurable results.

Who Should Consider Blood Sugar and A1C Screening

People who have noticed feeling more tired after meals or who have a family member with diabetes may benefit from this panel. For example, someone who has recently gained weight and feels thirsty more often might want to check their blood sugar and A1C to see if there are changes that need attention.

Ordering this panel may also be helpful if you:

  • Have a family history of diabetes or prediabetes.
  • Are overweight or have gained weight quickly in the past year.
  • Notice frequent urination or increased thirst.
  • Are planning to start a new exercise or nutrition program.
  • Have been told you have high blood pressure, as it can be linked to blood sugar changes.

Checking these markers can help you and your doctor spot changes early, so you can make adjustments before problems become harder to manage. Delaying this panel could mean missing the chance to catch small changes before they become more difficult to address.

Preparing for Blood Sugar and A1C Lab Work

Fasting is required for at least 8 hours before collecting your blood sample for this panel. Always follow any directions your doctor or healthcare provider gives you to make sure your results are as useful as possible.

Labs Included When Ordering Your Diabetes Baseline | Mary Shomon Panel

Test Name Reference Range What the Test Means Low and High Levels of the Marker
Fasting Glucose 70-99 Fasting glucose measures the amount of sugar in your blood after not eating for at least 8 hours. It helps show how well your body manages sugar when you are not eating. High levels mean your body may not be using sugar well, which can be a sign of prediabetes or diabetes.

Low levels mean your blood sugar is below normal, which can cause shakiness, sweating, or confusion.

Hemoglobin A1C 4.0-5.6 Hemoglobin A1C shows your average blood sugar over the past two to three months. It helps track long-term sugar control and can spot early changes before symptoms start. High levels mean your average blood sugar has been higher than normal, which can increase the risk of diabetes and related problems.

Low levels mean your average blood sugar has been lower than normal, which can sometimes happen with certain health conditions or treatments.

Reference ranges may change slightly as labs update their guidelines.
