I highly advise making an appointment with Lifeline Screening. They are a mobile medical unit that does ultrasounds on arteries. You get five tests for $149.00, usually. They do the artery scan, the abdominal artery scan, PAD, osteoporosis, and another one plus others that you choose. Below is a cutout of my scan I had last year. There are other arteries that can be blocked but if the two they check are clear, the others, IMO, should be too. It says I should do it again this year, but they told me three years. I'm assuming the test they want me to do this year is for osteoporosis. I have that too.

Not this time, but the last time I was there, they sent a woman immediately to the hospital after finding critical buildup in her arteries. They probably saved her life. This is one way to take responsibility for your own health when doctors are corrupted.

Thanks so much Melinda, I have done the lifeline and think they are doing a great service, but I’ve pretty much had every nook and cranny observed since last year. My cholesterol is not perfect now, but within range.

Also, that same doctor prescribed losartin for high blood pressure, I told him it was white coat syndrome but he would not believe me and I actually took the prescription. I am now off of the losartin because it was discovered that it was (at times) giving me dangerously low blood pressure. My blood pressure is normal and anny high readings were mostly indicative of other issues that the primary was too stupid or lazy to look into.

I found out a bunch about my health from a team of doctors at UT Southwest in Dallas. A hospital I highly recommend.

+1 on LifeLine.

I went last year and, surprisingly, came up with a clean bill of health. Except for low T. Now I take a supplement.
