I took my master medical couple weeks back and the only blemish (apart from known blood work readings) is my cholesterol is high.
My good cholesterol is in good range while the LDL bad cholesterol is in the upper end of the "high" range at 175.22. There is only a very high range after this.
i last took my lipid profile a year and 3 months back when my LDL was 112; just slightly higher than the reference good range.
i am a vegetarian on a typical rice/roti diet with lots of vegetables and fruits, and oatmeal cereal for breakfast. Tea with milk once a day. Only coconut sugar that too minimal. Good oils and home cooked meals only. Fairly active with running and aerobic based workouts minimum 3 times a day but average will be 4/week. I do have a sweet tooth but I was sugar free for 8 months during active treatment but I do have a small candy almost everyday post meals.
i am honestly baffled how the ldl went so high. While I am adjusting my diet further to reduce carbs and move to millets/more plant based food, I wonder if olaparib can cause it. I checked with my oncologist after the test, he thought hard and said gf will come back. Don't see any online literature calling it out. Hence just checking with you ladies to close this, since it is nagging me why I got cholesterol. No known family history.
