Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bluetit1802" data-source="post: 1529705" data-attributes="member: 94045">Yes, your trigs will be up because  you ate, particularly as most of it was fat. When you eat, more triglycerides are made by your body to help with the digestive process. Any food energy your body doesn't need immediately will be converted to trigs. So eating will cause trigs to be manufactured by your body and will be swimming about in your blood stream doing their job.It used to be the case that we were asked to fast before a cholesterol test, but NICE in its wisdom decided this wasn't necessary (because it inconveniences the surgery by having to make all appointments early in the day and therefore causing longer waiting times). Next time make sure you fast and hopefully you will see a big difference.</blockquote>
