Hdl cholesterol: Hdl cholesterol of 110 mg/dl is great! you should make sure it is not a lab error or if it is a different measurement than mg/dl, let us know.

Generally great: But there are certain instances where really high HDL is associated with atherosclerosis . Talk to your physician & consider getting a carotid intima medial thickening screening test.
