Ubiq -“but getting the age wrong when lipid screening is recommended, especially if now you have it right”

Stop proving that you No Nothing about primary care!
I’ll repeat it – “Most authorities recommend doing lipid testing starting at 20 y/o. If within normal range, most hold to repeat testing every 5 years.” This is Universal Testing!”

Why don’t you look in a Current Medical book?!?

Maybe this is your enjoyment, pretending that you are right?
But the problem with this, in this case, – is that some people might take you seriously!

The reason I started this topic with the USPSTF protocol, which is against Most protocols, is because if you didn’t do Lipid testing by 20 – 40 y.o., it’s Not too late to start it at 40, providing that you don’t have CVD or know about that you have CVD.
