why would triglycerides spike after years of normal?

Thanks.

good stuff..thanks!!!

I've seen this once before in my lab results. It turned out my one-time high abnormal triglycerides level was likely an error. My triglycerides had been very good for a long time and I couldn't point to anything that was significantly different.

My next triglycerides lab results -- back to being very good.

When a test result seems weird, run the test again…errors happen and we can be proactive. It possibly could be a very big difference in medical treatments.

I agree—don’t accept one very high abnormal test result as accurate, especially if nothing else has changed and you’re not feeling any symptoms. Getting at least one more test to confirm is sensible.

thanks. cardiologist is placing me on glimepride.

i researched med and not enthusiastic,.]

i am going to ask for a retest.

thanks again!!
