Why might results vary between the WorkHealth check and GP tests?
Blood glucose may vary between the time of the WorkHealth check and a laboratory test organised by the GP, because: • it varies throughout the day naturally, • one test was random and the other fasting, or • there may be another medical reason to explain the variation. The total cholesterol and HDL may vary due to natural variation from day to day or a change in the health of the worker, such as illness or taking certain medications.
