Weird CardioQ results

Posted by soggybones @soggybones, 3 hours ago

Hey all, I'm a 59 yo female who is very active and has never had any symptoms of heart disease. I did an advanced cardioQ test at Quest just for the heck of it and I was pretty upset at the results:

Total cholesterol-233
HDL-79
Non-HDL-154
Triglycerides-59
LDL-139

LDL particle number-2192!!!
LDL small particle number- 292!!
LDL-medium particle number-425!!
HDL large-9479!!

The above numbers were off the charts high!

my apo-B is 107
my lipo a is 18

Geez, Do I need to see a cardiologist?
