Did you know? Some "abnormal" lab values are typical for people with Down syndrome.

When running routine blood tests, if a value falls outside the normal range, the computer system will flag it as abnormal.

Dr. Hannah Graham developed the resource linked here based on what we have seen and typically recommend at the Adult Down Syndrome Center. As is the case for all of our resources, we recommend reviewing the educational materials we provide with your health providers regarding the specifics of your health care needs.
