There are home tests for cholesterol levels. They involve collecting your own blood sample from a fingerstick (equipment is provided in the test kit) and either matching it to a color chart or a moving indicator. They seem to be reliable although maybe not as conclusive as a laboratory test; patients should take great care and only buy those manufactured by a reputable medical or pharmaceutical company.
