My latest blood test after fasting 8 hrs is 108
No, they don't need to be fasting. However they need to be done before you've had your dosage of Sirolimus for the day (since taking Sirolimus on the day of the blood test, before the blood, test messes up the test).
Absolutely no alcohol obviously. Water is fine. Coffee and tea may or may not interfere with the test. Because it's only 12 hours perhaps just stick with water so as not to disrupt the results of your test!
A CBC test (Complete Blood Count) does not require fasting unless the doctor has ordered other tests and the office tells you not to drink or eat the night before.
NO. If a person is fasting (no food or drink for 8-10 hours) that is really what the doctor is testing. He/She is trying to get true lab results for lipid profiles, glucose, etc. IF a Complete Blood Count has been included in the laboratory exam, then it is a possiblitiy that the White blood count could be elevated (bacterial infection) or low (Viral infection) because of the fever.
This test requires 15-20 mL of blood.
at least 8 hours of fasting for a blood test
for fasting blood sugar 7 or 8 hours sufficient. for random or ppbs there is no need for fasting.
Fasting blood test requires at least the fasting for 8 hours and at most the 12 hours. Over-fasting (more than 13 hours) may give the erroneous results.
yes it needs fasting atleast 8 hours
The initial test, usually done at 28 weeks does not require that you are fasting. You should eat normally the day of the test. If that test is abnormal then you will have to do a Fasting Glucose Tolerance Test over 3 hours.
There is no fasting needed for a CBC. If other blood tests are needed, you might need to fast for twelve hours before the test.
6 to 8hrs of fasting(nothing Per Oral).

No. It is not a fasting test.
Ideally the test should be done a few hours after food intake to check how much phenytoin is absorbed or reduced due to food
