Brief Answer:
value 195,with limit of test 9, is very high, specific test name needed

Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

If possible, can the specific name of the test done, be provided, this would allow for better interpretation of the results.

The test that was done is not mentioned nor is the result or picture of the result attached.

There are some tests that assess for autoimmune disease.

If the test done has a limit of 9 and your value is 195 ( the H means high), then that is significantly out of range and may indicate a condition requiring treatment.
Unfortunately as mentioned, because I am not sure of the specific test cannot interpret further

A comprehensive metabolic panel consists of electrolytes (sodium,potassium, calcium, bicarbonate, chloride), liver function tests, kidney function, protein levels, blood sugar levels.

Which one of these was too high?

If it is easier, you can either take a pic of the result and attach it or write out the specific test and result.
Some persons attach the results to the questions so that all of them can be reviewed and commented on.
