Excuse my formatting, but I'm on my mobile.

My employer offered a basic health screening with a mobile clinic. They tested the following and assigned you to a low, moderate or high risk category depending on the results. Mine are as follows:

Total cholesterol - 141

HDL - 74

LDL - N/A (Sceener said it was too low for the machine to read because of the sensitivity threshold)

Triglycerides - >50 (Sceener said it was too low for the machine to read because of the sensitivity threshold)

Glucose - 72

Blood pressure - 94/58

Waist circumference - 31

BMI - 29

Screener said that overall I fall into the low risk category, but that I am technically borderline obese.
