[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1674969, member: 94045"] Ask for a print out. All the details will be on there, including which tests you had, what the levels were, and what the required range is. The total is the total of the HDL, the estimated LDL and 46% of the triglycerides. (UK measurements). It is important to get all test result print outs. It isn't good enough just to be given odd bits of it. You need to know exactly where you stand, and be able to compare future tests to look for trends up or down. It isn't just glucose and cholesterol, kidney and liver functions are also important for us (including eGFR and Gamma GT). If you are in England you may find your surgery puts test results on line as they were asked to do in 2016. Worth asking about this and how to register for it. [/QUOTE]
