Disappointing Hb1Ac results - please would you help me to decipher the cholesterol bit? The only meds I'm on is Apixaban anticoagulant.
Serum cholesterol level XE2eD 6.75. This is down .5 from last test 4 months ago. Keto for a year now, no deviation.
Serum Triglycerides XE2q9 1.01 which is quoted as within desired range of 0.5 to 2.5
Serum non-high density lipoproteinXabE1 4.8 quoted as equivalent to LDL of 1.8 mmol/L recommended 40% reduction
Serum cholesterol HDL ratio XaEUq 3.5
Serum HDL cholesterol level b44P5 1.95 mmol/L
Calculated LDL cholesterol levelXalp4 4.41mmol/L
Seeing Nursie next week, and going on form she'll be giving me rooty-toot and trying to force statins on me.
BG test remains 6.3 which is pre-diabetic range and the same as last time, though I'd hoped for lower. Mitigating circumstances - have had 2 lots of surgery, 8 weeks of steroids, 4 weeks of covid (unpleasant but not life-threatening, and still getting long covid runny nose).
Took test fasting, though told not to. It was before my brunch anyway.
I'd really appreciate input. Thank you.
