[QUOTE="acron^, post: 127078, member: 11804"] Hi guys & gals, It's been a while but I'm still around. I had my latest set of results and, as usual, they're confusing! Doctor rang and told me that the HBA1c has come back with two results: "4.2%" and "6". Assuming that the 4.2 is my actual HBA1c result, what would the 6 be? Average BG? Also - and I am not clued up about cholesterol - my LDL is 5.8 (bad, right?) and my HDL is 2.0 (good?). So, questions are,: What's the "6"? Is 5.8 LDL bad and what's the recommended level for Type 1s? I'm low-carb so naturally high-fat. What else can I do/avoid to lower my cholesterol? Thanks :) [/QUOTE]
