A member asked:

My triglyceride 165/cholesterol 200/hdl 31.5/ cldl 136/chlr 6.3 how does it look?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Increased risk: Hi. Your LDL and non-HDL (LDL + VLDL) are high; they are the atherogenic lipoproteins. Your HDL is low; that's the anti-atherogenic lipoprotein. Therefore, all those lipoprotein abnormalities increase your risk of atherosclerosis. Do you have a family history of premature heart attack? Do you have type 2 diabetes? Talk with your doc. It's better to prevent a heart attack than to treat one.
