Physical tomorrow: only 4 hours of fasting before

Has anyone had their doctor require only to fast 4 hours before their physical? This is the shortest fasting period I’ve had. Is this a trend? Anyone else recently had this request?

It all depends on the tests they plan to run, a surprising amount of them actually don't require fasting. I know the fasting blood sugar does, not sure how long. Are you at risk of diabetes?

I don’t think so. I’m pretty fit.

I have never had to fast for a physical exam. I have had to fast (12 hours) for blood tests but the blood work is done prior to the physical exam so that the results of the blood work become part of the discussion during the physical exam.
