Tests = Unhappy Doctor
OK Got back my test results after 12 weeks on Atkins
Here are my numbers ... btw .. they are all, both good and bad, up from last test about 6 months ago.
TOTAL Cholesterol 260
Trig - 49
LDL - 187
HDL - 63
Previous numbers
TOTAL - 230
Trig - 36
LDL - 172
HDL - 58
My doctor is telling me to lower my fat and retest in a few weeks or go on cholesterol lowering medication. I have a family history of high cholesterol, my mother had 2 bypass surgeries (before she was even my age) and has been on medication for years. Is it possible to get the numbers down by lowering just my sat. fats? Eventhough my fitday doesn't show my sat. fats are the majority of my fat it shows my monos as the majority of my fat intake.
