[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 891035, member: 21149"] Hi. As others have said, ignore the total cholesterol and note the LDL and HDL ratio which I suspect will or did improve with low-carbing. I also suspect your blood sugar improved but obviously you were unable to measure it. High blood sugar can be far more damaging than high total cholesterol. Have you looked at sourcing test strips on eBay? You have to take a view on the ethics of buying ex-prescription strips, but if you need them to manage the diabetes then it's important. [/QUOTE]
