 You got all of them right except for the HDL it is suppose to be 41 or higher not less then. So your HDL is a bit low.  

HDL = healthy or good cholesterol

 Exercise and losing weight is suppose to raise the HDL.

GREAT. I talked my pcp into letting me get off of Lipitor and Tricor the week after surgery. He wants the lipid panel in 2 months and I am hoping for good results.  I came home off of all of my diabetes meds and all that I am taking now are the new meds for my stomach that the surgeon put me on + my blood pressure meds......hope to be off of everything in juit a few months!
