Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. RISC test evaluates overall body system.
2. It is not completely necessary, but would be better.
3. If not, at least routine urine examination would be better. Routine sugar and HbA1c should be done.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
