Had bloodwork done Monday and had my follow up with doc today. I am happy to announce that my cholesterol was down to 152(was 270ish last time), and my triglycerides were down to 212(were over 1000 last time). That is the lowest those #'s have been in 10 years.
My blood Pressure, however is a different story. Actually got an increase in meds for that. 😳

Last time I had my triglycerides checked I was a little over 500 and I thought I was bad.

For cholesterol...125-200 is in the normal range. 180 is good

What did you take to lower it? I'm on crestor now for about the last 3 weeks. I was up to 271. Did you change your diet too?
