Re: My first post.. scared about blood test results
I also find that different countries have different base numbers that health is measured by. I'm English but living temporarily in Germany and my routine blood tests have a different meaning here. Just recently I was told my cholesterol levels were on the high side with a reading of 4.6 and the ideal base number for Germans is 3. In the UK 4.6 would've been a good reading as our base number was always around 5. So I wouldn't need meds for this in England, but my doctor here in Germany did suggest it which I politely declined. Blood tests in any country seem to cause more anxiety than comfort!
