[QUOTE="optimist1, post: 2418449, member: 542722"] You need to do what you and your doctor think is best. I take Fenofibrate. Which is a non-statin cholesterol med. However Google said 12 hrs is optimal for a fasting blood test. I tend to be 14-16 hrs As said total cholesterol doesn't mean much. The triglyceride and HDL ratio seems very important. Triglyceride level indicates the ratio of LDL to sdLDL I would be OK with low trigs, high HDL and a higher LDL, because it's the LDL that carry the fat in a high fat diet. Are you losing weight? That can raise cholesterol. Weight may need to be stable for a period for accurate results. [/QUOTE]
