Message: <blockquote data-quote="Melgar" data-source="post: 2710905" data-attributes="member: 520626">I have a similar lipid imbalance. I had my lipids tested the other day. I fasted for 7 hours. That was my choice, I was not told to fast. My overall cholesterol is lower than yours at 6.50 mmol/ls. My HDL’s  are 1.71 and non HDL’s are at 4.79.My Triglycerides are at 0.54 mmol/l’s. My Dr doesn’t like the lipid imbalance. It was suggested by a member on here that I am a Lean Mass Hyper Responder type, and that made sense, as I had been on a very low carb diet. However, the very low carb diet   did not work to bring my blood sugars down, I increased my carbs. This increase in carbs made no difference to my Cholestrol. My Trigs have fallen that’s all. So I’m not a LMHR. I have been tested twice now for hyperthyroidism, but my TSH levels are in range. My TSH levels have fallen since my last blood test, but still in range.</blockquote>
