LDL = 20 , HDL= 27, NO heart attack thank goodness.

I've been through hell for three years now. I'm writing a book but will say that I've had enough of statins

It is good that you are writing a book, all I did was to write a word document from my experience in health and cholesterol!

you need to specify the unit of measurement of the blood test result values.

I take it your total cholesterol is over 60?

[rlulery in reply to sandybrown]

sorry, units mg/dL... have to look up total in my records...i have it

[rlulery in reply to rlulery]

Units of Measure Conversion Formulas. Conversion for TC (total cholesterol), HDL (high density lipoprotein) and LDL (low density lipoprotein)* † : To get from SI units (mmol/L) to mg/dL multiply by 38.67. To get from mg/dL to SI (in mmol/L) multiply by 0.02586.

LDL: 20 mg/dl x 0.02586 (0.5172mmol/L) … yes, that’s right almost zeroed out…

HDL: 27 mg/dl x 0.02586 (0.6982mmol/L)

what happens when they double your dose without current lab work

Thank you for creating the compilation. Believe me I know the work involved. my interest now to answer/question of the drive down of ldl? how far? in my case 20 mg/dl ldl and 27 mg/dl hdl ...We believe...began a series of cascading events...intravascular lymphoma...>25 pinpoint ischemic strokes...all after my med was doubled (20mg to 40mg) based on 7-week old lab work. i am writing a book...been working on it for the three years of cancer recovery...it is such a bundle of rare circumstances even the lawyers won't step up. the malpractice claim we hope will materialize. we are in Kentucky and the clock is ticking. All this stuff really happened. I walk with a cane now my balance is so bad. Ah, that catharsis buzz
