And they keep changing the ideal numbers so that it is almost impossible to achieve cholesterol that is that low. Oh, and they forget that your body and your brain NEED cholesterol to function properly. I wouldn't touch these drugs with a ten foot pole.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 Hi guys, My husband just had his bloodwork done and I'm confused by the numbers in his lipid panel. It says cholesterol: 158, triglycerides: 78, HDL: 41 and LDL: 101. Shouldn't the LDL and HDL add up to the total cholesterol number? If not, what's going on here? Thanks!
