Title: Should lipid panels be mandatory?
Post by: Pseudoscience-is-malarkey on 19/02/2020 22:05:58

Should those kind of tests be done mandatory or just if your physician is worried about something?

By the by, my vitamin D levels from my test last week were "astonishingly low". I don't understand how anyone in a develop country can have that problem.
