LDH results, should I be concerned?

For last 3 years, my LDH level has been around 190, picked up during routine annual blood testing for work. The range from my lab says anything <251 is normal but some lab ranges on the NHS says top range is 214. Should I be worried that's mine is always at the higher end of normal. Obviously I'm worried about things like lymphoma as it's of often used as a marker of the disease. I have no other health conditions such as anemia or hypothyroid, I'm petite, I don't exercise much and not on any medication. Has anyone had levels like this not related to disease? Thank you for reading

it's normal. You can't compare lab normal ranges unless you know they're using the same assays.

Mine is240- 250. No one is concerned on the medic side. It is at the top end of the range. But that's what it is, a range! Your result is normal IMV.

Higher end of normal is NORMAL

Thank you, I do have terrible HA and always struggle with getting results back, especially when results are at the higher end of the range or just over
