I am sorry that you had a high chol. check. I am sure if your doctor said not to worry than you shouldn't. I am confused why so many people on this forum are getting high results. That worries me. It just isn't at all what atkins says should happen. I have heard more people say they are getting bad readings from their doctor than good.

I have only been on ther plan for 3 months. My last visit to the doctor was good and my cholesterol was 170. But it had never been high so I don't have much to compare it too, as a matter of fact it was only the 2nd time I have had it taken. I am 29 and Insurance doesn't really want to flip the bill for it inless there is a problem that would point to high cholesterol.

Anyway, glad your other numbers were good.
