Which tests has your doctor said you need? If it is for a specific problem then you will only get that one test done.maybe you need to ask your doctor for other tests like Hba1c for instance.

See if you can get a Full Lipid Panel, that's the one that breaks down the cholesterol into trigs, HDL and LDL. The total cholesterol test is pretty useless (though cheap so they tend to prefer it)

HbA1c is the other standard test, along with the usual blood panel including liver and kidney function etc.
