A COMPLEX LIPID PROFILE

Posted By RALPH on April 12, 1999 at 17:37:51:







MY RECENT BLOOD TEST FOR LIPIDS WERE AS FOLLOWS,  TOTAL CHOL. 153, LDL 89, TRIG. 181, HDL 26, I KNOW MY HDL IS LOW BUT IT IS DIFFICULT TO RAISE IT. I TAKE SEVERAL VITAMINS PER DAY, I ALSO HAVE HBP, ESPECIALLY AT THE DOCTORS OFFICE, WHICH I KNOW IS WHITE COAT HYPERTENSION. RECENT HOLTER MONITOR TESTING EKG AND BP, INCONLUSIVE. WITH ALL OF THIS, I FEEL I HAVE A CONDITION CALLED, HYPOALPHALYPOPROTEINEMIA, DUE TO THE LOW HDL. DO YOU AGREE AND IS MY LIPID PROFILE THAT BAD. THANKS.
