Well since june of last year i have been fighting to get my cholesterol down. I dont know if anyone remembers me but i am 25 male, 5'10, 195 pounds. My cholesterol back in june was;
total = 250 tri's = 424 and my HDL was 32. After trying to diet, exericise nothing worked then i was put on Tricor which did not lower my total cholesterol. Then i was giving lipitor 20MG and my latest test results were. Total = 164 Tri's= 217 HDL=34 VLDL=43 and LDL = 87. I think that is a huge improvment and it is such a good feeling to get these numbers down. Since i was 19 i have had high cholesterol and not until last year did i actually care. thanks to all that have helped on this forum and who gave me advise. I know those numbers are not perfect but much much better then before and i can work from these numbers to get my TRIS lower.
