Yes, most physicals include
blood pressure
labs
drug tests
ekg
chest xray
sometimes check prostate
While the testing may well turn up drug useage, your doctor must keep medical records private.
If the test is being done to qualify you for life insurance , or for grade-school sports, don't expect to be accepted.
But the recent HIPPA regulations gaurantee privacy.
Usually when they take blood tests at a physical. It is for a white & red blood count. Cholesteral screening.. Liver/Kidney & Glucose screening. Also some docs these days have a mandatory Aids test as well.so you might get that one. And also maybe a thyroid screening. *If you are a private pay patient.they have to tell you what tests they are taking or you tell them what you want them to take. Insurance patient is fairly basic.as mentioned above. But if it is a physical for a job and a third party is paying for it.they can probally test you for anything they want.
Yeah, most physicals include a drug screen.
Labs, EKGs, Pregnancy tests, there could be anything thrown in there!
