Before ordering labs
Ask which question the lab is meant to answer, whether the result needs a morning draw or fasting state, and what would change based on a high, low, or borderline result.
After results come back
Good follow up explains what is clear, what is uncertain, what should be repeated, and whether other causes should be evaluated before any treatment decision.
