hmm...i took a pamphlet the other day at california fitness about a wellness screen or something by pathlab..RM80 with 38 tests...it says there exclusively for california fitness members...thought of giving it a try this weekend anyone know about this?

jia lat
so many things to check
and so little $$$$$
what is our gov doing ah ?

those private labs always have this promotion thingy going on and its kinda cheap actually e.g. around rm100. the tests included in the packages offers are reasonable enough to check the status of your health. it would be better if you know what tests to go for, its even better because some of the tests included doesnt really serve any purpose

ive never had a blood test in my life. maybe i did when i was 1st born, but at 19 years old now izzit to young to take a blood test or should i godo it ? how will they take the blood test ?

Normal Blood Test check for hepatitis B cost how much in Malaysia's Clinic? and how much is the anti hepatitis B injection cost?

after reading this thread, seem like there's no affirmation of whether doing blood test in this small lab is good or just a kind of suburban paranoia myth. so which health care should we rely on their professionalism.

Just walk into one and do one simple one, if turns into no prob, most probably you are fine too. If there's symptom of abnormalities found, you will always required to do further confirmation test. There's no test without error percentile.

how about the body check that main for around chest area?

what kind of test men should do for prostate cancer? anyone experience in this.

ECG u mean? to measure you heart beat? If you suspect you have irregularity on your heart beat

not heart beat. jsut want to check why my chest pain

start with ECG, to see whether abnormal to your heart beat

how bout prostate?

Hrmmmm government clinic/hospital cannot do full-body checkout?

saw somewhere must go to national blood center. wonder if the wait is long?

gonna have a full blood test at a private hospital or probably at a clinic(is it cheaper doing it at hospital?)..how much does is it cost?and by saying full blood test that includes stds,hiv and other type of disease right?sorry for sounding dumb

cheaper if u go pathlab etc, they usually have packages.

Full blood test may include:

1. Full blood count (e.g. white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets)
2. Biochemistry measurement (e.g. cholesterol, protein, glucose)
3. Urine checkup (e.g. physical and chemistry components)
4. Blood type (ABO Grouping) ( always come in a package)
5. Thyroid function (e.g. T4, T3)
6. Hepatitis B related
7. Tumour marker (e.g. PSA, CA-125, AFP

so by going hospital is cheaper is it?

how about stds and hiv?can we like replace it like for example I dont want the blood type result so I want it to switch with stds or hiv result?
