onco_p53's Journal: Health Check

Just had a free health check up at work. Not doing too bad:

• Blood Glucose: 4.4 mmol/L
• Blood Pressure: 122 / 70
• Height: 170cm
• Weight: 69kg
• BMI: 23.8
• Total cholesterol: 4.95 mmol/L (191 mg/dL)
• HDL: 1.78 mmol/L (69 mg/dL)
• LDL: 3.17 mmol/L (122 mg/dL)

I have given the American units in the brackets for comparison. Not quite sure why the USA uses these non-SI units. Maybe they think it is easier to read? Anyway the conversion factor is 0.02586 found here

EDIT: 3rd June 2004
Had a new test:

• Triglycerides: 1.4
• Total cholesterol: 4.5 mmol/L
• HDL: 1.5 mmol/L
• LDL: 2.3 mmol/L

19 Jan 2011 LDL: 3.2
