Cholesterol count
Since when has the CAA taken an interest in cholesterol readings? I retired from flying in 2000 after 32 years with BA and never had a test from the CAA in all that time. Five years later aged 60 decided to let the GP do a test--total cholesterol was 14.3 (4 recommended) and glycerides 22.7(1.8 recommended). Not known how long this level existed--blood pressure has always been 120/80 since a teenager.
Stress ECG and other tests suggest no long term harm hopefully. Statins,fibrates, and gallons of fish oil have brought total down to 3.9!
Just because your blood pressure is OK dot not assume the cholesterol is too. Would advise everyone irrespective of age to have a test.
