Have you any particular worries or queries?

Many of these tests are in measurement units that we don't have in the UK I'm afraid.

I think I wanted opinion whether it's a case of insulin deficiency or resistance. And what can be done to impepim.
 
OK. I can't help you there. It is very rare in the UK to have fasting insulin tests, although some people have had them done privately. I know @bulkbiker has so maybe he can help.
 
You have been ordered these tests by someone. That someone is responsible for reporting to you what the results are (including the normal range of each test) plus interpreting what the results mean.
We on site are not qualified to provide an interpretation of these results.
Best Wishes.
 
I did these tests as they were easy to get done. Was just looking for general feedback. I will speak to gp once I am in London

I doubt your GP will be familiar with the Insulin test or the insulin resistance result.
Your 1.3 is slightly elevated or at least the feedback I got from my 1.06 was that it was slightly elevated and could be a precursor for T2 but all my other blood markers were indicative that I was completely normal. I'm assuming that the readings you got have converted into the same HOMA IR units that I got.... otherwise all bets are off..
The calculation seems to be esoteric as I can't replicate the result I was given by Medichecks!
