So, Doc . . . whats my cholesterol? Frustrations of discussing the physical exam
Product Description
What I find particularly disconcerting about the physical exam is that no matter what I do or say, patients only want to know their cholesterol count. Take, for example, Fred, a 52-year-old, 350-lb patient who was returning for the results of his exam. I have to say that for the last 10 years, ever since I developed a computer-based wellness approach, giving patients their physical examination results has been especially pleasurable for me. In graphic form, patients see a compilation of data for each year they’ve participated in my HealthTrends program, including all the contributing factors to any disease for which they have a greater-than-average 10-year mortality risk. For example, high-risk diabetic patients see their blood glucose level, weight, and caloric intake flash before their eyes in a montage of graphs. For a computer nut like myself, this program is the sliced bread. Unfortunately, Fred is one of my patients who doesn’t share my enthusiasm.

Preparing patient for clinical tests for blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure ?
I wish to have clinical tests for assessing
(1) blood sugar and other effects of having diabetes for last one year
(2) whether I have high blood pressure
(3) whether my cholesterol level is normal
(4) eye test.
I can get these tests done without consulting a doctor. But I wish to know what all tests I should do and how should I prepare for these tests such as fasting blood sugar etc.
Thanks
What should be the normal range for Cholesterol and fasting blood sugar?
12 hours fasting after foods my levels as belaw
Blood sugar – 105
Total Cholesterol – 232
HDL – 58
LDL – 150
TG – 120
(I’m 37 Male and having on and off chest pain. My Dr.said that My Blood Presure is normal and he has a doubt whether I should start to take medicine or not)
If I start to take medicine, Am I supposed to continue it for whole life?
*My family histry nobody has got heart attack or diabeties(Parents/Brothers/sisters)
Fasting blood sugar levels question?
I’m not a diabetic, but I decided to test my blood sugar. I have not eaten anything since 11 p.m. last night and this morning my blood sugar was 88. I thought that was high for me, so I tested again and it was 94. To me that was really high, so I tested again and it was 104. I just tested again and my reading was 93. I realize that those are all in the “normal” range, but is it something I should worry about? Again, I have not eaten anything all day and I’m getting these readings. Should I worry about them?
What is the normal range of blood sugar in/with cholesterol and blood pressure?
I’m a vampire so i should know this. lol jk my mom wants to know this the original question is: What is the normal range of blood sugar cholesterol and blood pressure?
i didnt think that made sense so i rephrased it
