Yet another check up

Another three months, another check up.

Lots of blood tests and a raft of diabetes tests (just in case). Everything is okay. What stands out is my HDL Cholesterol (the good stuff) continues to move up to 1.4 mmol/l from 1.2. This has made a big change to my Total/HDL ratio, which is now 2.9 -- not bad. I credit that to my homemade muesli. Whoever thought I'd be 'knitting my own muesli.

Blood pressure is pretty stable at 132/85 -- but it could be better yet. More exercise and less eating is needed.

Overall, a big tick from Doc Budelmann.

Quick summary then

Total cholesterol4.0 mmol/l< 5.0
HDL cholesterol1.4 mmol/l> 1.0
LDL cholesterol2.3 mmol/l< 3.0
Triglyceride0.8 mmol/l< 2.0
Total/HDL ratio2.9< 4.5
