Triglycerides

I’m very pleased to say my total cholesterol has gone from 6.4 to 4.6 from March this year to August. I worked hard with diet mainly and exercise.

However my triglycerides weren’t included in this blood test. Has anyone found that due to their thyroid problems that their triglycerides are raised?

That's odd! Triglycerides are an important part of the lipid profile - it seems that your recent test is akin to TSH only or maybe TSH and total T4!

Has anyone found that due to their thyroid problems that their triglycerides are raised?

Undiagnosed and/or badly treated hypo messes with everything. Do you believe you have high triglycerides?
