[|Human|] I had a recent lipid profile with results as follows HDL 86 LDL 234 Triglycerides 70, my doctor was very upset with these since the LDL numbers have risen since my menopause 8 months ago. I am not overweight, exercise regularly, eat quite healthy(take flaxseed powder 2tbs. daily, along with liposomal vit. c and salmon oil, eat plenty of veggies and fresh orange juice daily... She wants me on medication. I do not think medication is an option until she is willing to test for LDL type a or type b to see if I am truly at risk for heart disease. Where can I get this test?
[|AI|]  Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You LDL cholesterol level is high, but there may be some problems in HDL. HDL level of 86 is very unusual.  You should repeat your complete lipid profile test after a month.  Till that take low fat diet with high amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids. No need to start medication now.  Later on if needed you can start Chat Doctor.  But right now you don't required medication.  Just go for repeat testing. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
