Lipids

Got the blood test results back finally (lab screwed up and only did an A1c, so I had to have blood drawn again for everything else.

I'm now boringly normal on everything they tested for.

At diagnosis I was at:

Total Cholesterol: 215
Triglycerides: 99
HDL : 43
LDL: 152

I'm now at:

Total Cholesterol: 164
Triglycerides: 115
HDL: 45
LDL: 96

Ratio went from 5.0 to 3.6

they also checked vLDL this time and it came in at: 23

All in all, I give myself a big 'ol w00t (since w00t has been named the word of the year).
