Ty, I don't think you could work it out unless you have the test.

Do the test and see what the results bring.



I'm a fat forker and my cholesterol/ blood sugar is fine.










What's the difference between fat and cholesterol?


























Ever woken up in the morning with a cholesterol?

i wasn't trying to work it out.. i was just saying I'm curious what my result will be.. like if they will categorise me as unhealthy or not blah blah blah...

oh well Tuesday next week i find out
also get a free flu shot 2moz..

Needles I'm not fussed about..

Alex.. don't you have to have to done as a requirement for your job?
like i thought all people that work in OR's have to have blood tests periodically.

Is that all you have to ask for? just saying I want to get a full blood test - then they will send it away and do a bunch of **** to it and tell you if you ok or not?

How much blood do they take?

Talk to your GP.

Tell him your concerns.

Ask him to select all the options for the blood test (a full blood test).

He'll take 3-4 vials out from you. Results should take a couple of days...

Ty - Generally speaking if someone says "Your loan is 13%" and when you get the contract, it says 18% it means the rates have changed between the time you got your contract and when you draw the loan down.

Either that, or you were rorted.

Generally speaking, most advertised bank rates can be negotiated with.

For instance, our standard home loan rate is 7.67%, but i can offer as low as 6.97 or if lending amount is over $1m, even lower then that.

Cheers,

Kewl. I don't know how big a vial is but I am sure I could cope

I have never had a blood test. (maybe when I was a baby..?) but that would be the only time.

You have to tell your Doc what you're worried about. General bloods are pretty vague and don't seem to tell you anything conclusive.

[B4TT]

Oh.. so if I am not really worried about anything it is probably pretty pointless?

[Alex]

Just tell him you've haven't had bloods taken in ages, and you'd like to know your general state of health.

[Shaz]

Vvvwhoop.

Cheers,

Yeah, cam went postal and he is going from door to door killing off those in GT so that he can become the top poster.

Well, not as scary as a scalpel, at least.

Going under the scalpel this afternoon. Getting a wart thing cut off my arm. Was done 4-5 years ago but recently come back.

Will also ask about my chest again, still has something inside it that I can feel when running/jumping, etc.

Soccer season is starting up again soon and I want to be in good shape

Aren't those general health bloods pretty pointless and outdated these days? I've had what feels like litres and litres of blood taken in the last 12 months and everything is so inconclusive. I suppose everything is different for different people, my favourite general blood was a three letter acronym (can't for the life of me....) which should have been in the 7-15 range, I copped a 40+, and my GP went on to tell me that this finding confirms that I am 'SICK'.

True story.

SICK NUTS TO BE PRECISE, DOC!?

"No lad, off to hossie for you!"

Still living in 08 i see.

I woulda thought we'd be on 12 by now for sure. Maybe my original 8pm may still work.

Do we have fireworks?

Yeah, I don't like people with their caps on backwards either.
