So, my results from last weeks blood test are in and I'm reasonably happy overall .
A1C - 5.2% (33 mmol). Very happy with this as I thought it might be higher! It's slightly up from last years 5.1% but I'm not going to lose sleep over 0.1%
Overall cholesterol 5.6 (was 5.7 last year), but my ratios weren't as good as before.
Triglycerides 0.93
HDL 1.8 (this was better before)
LDL 3.4 (I'm pretty sure this was much lower last year)
Ratio 3.1
I believe these are ok (no further action required was what the Doctors Receptionist read from the computer ) but I would like to work at improving my HDL and lowering the LDL. A bit of research needed there.
Any comments or advice welcome
