Replies to "So I did a company wellness check. My cholesterol is 167 which is good but HDL..."
@jadillow- This surprises me that you only received the numbers on those two? Generally when they do blood work for a lipid count they include at least five numbers and your LDL and Triglycerides are a very important part of the lipid count. The LDL also referred to the "Lousy One" should preferebly below 60.

@thankful When this is done in a store or company they just check these 2 my company I worked for sent me to Walmart to do these so yes I told him he needs a lipid profile done at a lab
@jadillow For a complete cholesterol you need to ask Dr for a lipid profile it's a fasting this will give you all the cholesterol triglycerides and ldl so ask your Dr if you want it all checked
I use to check in stores and yes it gives only the hdl nothing else
