What is your Cholesterol Level?

[mle_ii]

I'm curious what folks Cholesterol Levels are, so please answer the following:
What is your total cholesterol?
What is your HDL level?
What is your LDL level?
What is your trigliceride level?

Here are my current levels:
Name TOTAL HDL LDL TRIG DATE Taken
Mike 172 76 83 66 8/15/2007

Values in mg/dL.

If anyone has their levels before diagnosis of MC I'd be interested as well. It was at my highest level just before that.
Name TOTAL HDL LDL TRIG DATE Taken
Mike 227 78 137 59 2/25/2004

Also here was my lowest:
Name TOTAL HDL LDL TRIG DATE Taken
Mike 134 46 79 44 2/23/1995

Just a curiosity. :)

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks Barbara. Anyone else care to post theirs?

Yeah, no meds here. I suppose I eat well and perhaps genes are good in this regard. Something's working right. :)

Not great, but you should have seen it before cholesterol-lowering meds (and before MC)

total C--317
Tri--232
HDL 46
LDL--224

How do you guys get such good triglicerides?

Kathy-----naturally I am on meds. + I do watch (most of the times) what I shovel into my mouth--

If I cheat a *wee-bit*, here and there---I then take time off and watch myself--

I hate to get that card---saying *call me about your Lipids-after GP has my blood -- I usually *peek* at the bottom of the card(before opening it ) cus if I see those words then I know I am in trouble--
