Annual health review?

Wouldn't it be useful if the over-70s did have an Annual Health Review. Conditions may be spotted before it's too late to deal with them. Our medications could be reviewed etc. (new improved drugs are coming in all the time)

We can have our teeth inspected every 6 months, so why not our bodies?

I have to have an annual
Blood test cos I have an under active thyroid.
A few years ago I asked that they test everything reasonably possible at the same time-my MOT.
Have to get a GP to authorise it.

Yes same here about three years ago our surgery was taken over by new doctors because of retirement. I received a text to go for tests. I was told I had kidney disease and it was detected about seven years ago. I was really upset at the time as know one had informed me before then. Apparently this happens a lot in many health centres so I have been told since.

I had bloods taken and was sent for a scan. I was told that the meds for my arthritis may have caused the kidney disease. I was told to stop taking the meds so now I just have to tolerate the pain.
