Professional answer

You should not judge changes based on the numbers alone. Give the complete reports to your doctor, keep the test names, units, reference ranges, test dates, and facility information, and ask the doctor to confirm whether these results can be compared. When making your own table, copy the original values and units exactly; for parts that need conversion or trend interpretation, have a professional verify them.
