Start with general check-up - bp, pulse, skin and oral exam. Then focus in on any specific complaints you have. Then lots of blood tests - CBC, renal and liver function, lipids, glycosalated hemoglobin, glucose, urinanalysis, Then colonoscopy. Maybe more depending on social and family background (maybe not).

Time to establish with a primary care doc so that you can have an exam a well as catching up with recommended preventive care, including immunizations as well as tests. If previously established make sure your records get transferred timely.
