Chloride

This test measures the level of chloride in your blood, an electrolyte that helps keep fluids and acids balanced inside your body. It helps show whether you are properly hydrated and if your kidneys are functioning correctly. Doctors often use this result to investigate symptoms like prolonged vomiting, diarrhea, or fatigue. While it helps identify issues with fluid balance or body acidity, this test does not diagnose a specific condition on its own and is usually reviewed with other electrolyte levels.
