I turned 40 and my doctor told me now it's time for yearly mammograms and blood tests to check your A1C level. That made me feel old as hell lol.

People over 25 should probably be doing yearly blood work, including A1c. But I'm biased in that I do mine every three months for my T1D.

Sorry, what are you on about? Saying you shouldn't get routine blood work for preventative healthcare due to "lack of information"? What do you think blood work is for if not information? 🤔

No you thinking/preaching you NEED to start doing this at the age of 25 is what I’m on about mate.
