Before you get worried about needing a "neurological" workup, you should see a doctor.  If it's a question of money/no insurance....just contact your county's department of social services.  They will get you in to be seen by their mental health department for either free or hardly anything.  Once you talk to a doctor about your symptoms, he/she will refer you for any testing you may need (also for either free or hardly anything).  They can also get you any medications you may need, too.\n\nPlease start there.  Don't get ahead of yourself.  Let the doctor guide you.

It is quite easy.  The most of the hospitals have ready-made packages for complete heart check-up say `Executive Health Check up' , `Complete Cardiac Check up' or so.  And after a due diligence you will find a package which may be most suitable to you.  Even in young age it is really a good idea to get it done either every year or after a gap of 1 or 2 years.  In case, you are reluctant to go for that complete check up, due to cost factor, you may opt to get your ECG, Lipid Profile and Sugar level checked at a much lesser cost.

Eat like you normally do before the test.  That way you will have an accurate assesment from it.  Otherwise, don't take the test.  Cause it doesn't even make sense to cheat your way through it.  It is completely voluntary.

Unfortunatly there are not non-invasive tests that are 100% conclusive when it comes to ishchemic heart disease.  Even the results from a heart-cath are subjective, although generally this test considered to be the most conclusive procedure for determining the extent of ishchmic heart disease.\n\nThere are two simialar tests which are generally accepted to be quite reliable in looking for coronary blockages.  1st, there is a nuclear stress test which would be my personal choice if I were to be tested for heart disease.  It involves being injected with a mildly radio-active isotope and taking two sets of pictures of your heart.  One set of the pics is while you are at rest, and the other is after you have stressed your heart while briefly getting on a treadmill to increase the heart rate and blood flow.  In the event you are unable to get on a treadmill, there is a drug which is administered to artificially increase the heart rate and blood flow.  These two sets of pictures give the docs. some good diagnostic info. to work with.  The test also indicates your hearts ejection fraction, a very important number that if below normal ranges is a strong indicator of heart disease.  Your ejection fraction indicates what percentage of blood from your heart is pumped with each beat, with numbers under 50% indicating that there may very well be a blockage.  The other test is a high speed CT scan, commonly called a cat scan, looking for calcium deposits in your arteries.  The CT scan is less expensive and time consuming than the nuclear scan, but provides less data.  In the event that either of these tests were to indicate a blockage of significance, the next step would be to have a heart catherization to see if stents, angioplasty, or a bypass would be advisable.  If your looking for a non-invasive test for ischemic heart disease, I highly recommend that you pursue having a nuclear stress test.   Feel free to email me if you would like further info.  Best of luck to you.

If healthy, an annual or twice yearly physical by your regular doc and gynecologic exam including a pap smear by your OBGYN should be performed.\n\nIf you have conditions that need monitoring or have warranted suspicion (i.e., high blood pressure, gynecologic conditions or disorders), obviously you will need to go more often.  But for a well-woman checkup, once or twice a year should be sufficient.\n\nBetween the physical and the gyn exams, you should be covered for all the important tests.

Yes.  Just ask the volunteer group you are working with to get you a list of what you should get.  Usually its stuff like Hep A, Tetanus, Flu, and Pneumonia.  They will also want to do a TB test.

If you mean what is done during a general exam this is what it entails, at least where I have worked, which was an internist.  Vital signs-  temperature, pulse, respiratory rate, blood pressure.  The doctor will also listen to your lungs, and do just a general head to toe examination.  This would include a rectal exam to check for any bleeding and to check your prostate if you are male.  If you are female he would also do a quick pelvic exam, including a pap.  He might also do a chest x-ray.  General blood work is also done, plus a urinalysis.

it all depends on how fit you are if you are having trouble with your heart or if your cholesterol is high or having trouble breathing if you say yes to all of these things then the  question to your answer would be yes go to the doctors to get yourself checked out they will give you a blood test and a heart test and also they will make you blow down a tube to see if your breathing is ok  i hope i have not scared you with all of this   please let me know how you got on

Doctor's do a variety of things when you get a physical, depending on whether you are sexually active, your age, and just the doctor.\n\nA GOOD doctor should at the very least:\n\nCheck your blood pressure\nWeigh you\nExamine your eyes, ears, and mouth\nListen to your heart and lungs\nTest your reflexes\n\nDoctors may also:\nDo a breast exam\nPalpitate your internal organs\nAsk you to close your eyes, stand on one leg and touch your nose (to check your balance *lol*)\n\nIf you are sexually active they will want to:\nPreform a PAP test\nTest for STDs\n\nHowever I want you to know that you can decline the PAP test and that there is a more accurate blood test version available to those in the US (and possibly other countries, but not yet where I live in Canada) http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/medicalnews.php?newsid=27364\n\nYou may also do the swabs required to test for certain STDs yourself.  You do not have to let a doctor examine you in any way that makes you uncomfortable.  If you are feeling pressured by your doctor consider finding another one.\n\n\n\nIf you are older there are other tests such as\nBone density\nMammograms\n\nMost doctors will also run some blood work depending on your age and any concerns.

No set rules on that.  The most important blood test would be potassium if you are on any diuretics or ACE inhibitors.  It really depends on your medical situation and the comfort level of both you and the phycisian.  Also, I bet insurance comapanies will not allow it too often.
