did you get my report by any chance? LOL! My cholesterol is 239 as well and I just tested about 10 days ago!! It has creeped up from 199 a year and 2 months ago… in addition my AST and ALT at 39 and 44 respectively have gone up a bit as well as I have been drinking quite a bit (3-4 beers a day 🙁
My triglycerides are 139 which are borderline I believe. I have a co-worker whose triglycerides were 375..holy cow!!
but I need to stop regular drinking, I’ve been doing it for about 6-7 yrs now but I think it’s time to stop. But I am finding quitting to be incredibly difficult…any pointers?
As for cholesterol levels, I believe if you have high pattern A cholesterol then it’s fine… smaller pattern B is the cause for arteriosclerosis and heart disease! One needs a VAP test to determine particle type which I intend to do next time I get tested.
