Before starting a cardio-respiratory exercise program, which medical tests might you considered receiving from your doctor? (No

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

I'm 80.

I want my doctor to tell me I'm not over exerting myself by doing anything beyond walking 4 blocks to get the mail.

I want him to order blood tests (I live in Canada. Those come under public health care). I want him to tell me if my potassium and sodium levers are normal, to say nothing of red and white cell counts. And platelets. I don't want to get a cut and not be able to control the bleeding.

I want him to assure me I'm not diabetic. You should be able to guess what test will determine that.

I want him to take my blood pressure and assess it for me. Is it too high, is it too low? What is it? Do I need medication or am I safe without it.

I want him to take my temperature. I want to be assured I'm not running some sort of fever. At my age, fevers and not jokes, and they have a 0 rating for a sense of humor.

I want him to test my memory capabilities. I want to remember what my limit is for exercise and not over do it.

I want him to test my reflexes. I used to be able to juggle. I wonder if I still can. Am I fast enough? Am I sensitive enough?

Hearing? How bad is my hearing loss? It seems severe to me. The neighbors routinely tell me they missed the 3rd news item. Could I tell them what it was.

Well those are for starters. My family doctor would do all of the above things without being prompted.
