This week, at University Health’s Robert B. Green campus, pharmacists provided free cholesterol, blood sugar and blood pressure screenings to more than 60 adults. They also provided protection from illness by giving 40 people an updated flu shot in advance of this year’s respiratory season.

Your blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar levels may indicate a health problem you can take care of before you develop a serious illness.

Imagine it is so difficult to breathe you are almost always connected to an oxygen delivery system and your doctor believes your best chance for improved respiratory health is a lung transplant.
