So confused. I had a call from my GP surgery saying my cholesterol results were "out of range".
My total cholesterol is 4.7 and my LDL is 3.1 These appear in range according to my google results, are you supposed to be at a different number if T1?
When I asked what I could do the GP said I should just watch what I eat and exercise more but that if the results don't improve in 3 months I might need "treatment" - what does that mean? Drugs?
I am slim, my BMI is 20 which is well within in the healthy range, I exercise intensively 3-5 times per week and generally watch what I eat and eat pretty healthily, even more so since my T1 diagnosis. Have never smoked and very rarely drink. Feel at a bit of a loss!
