Quarterly Blood Analysis

Here are the results of my quarterly blood test.

85 Glucose (Excellent)
120 Total Cholesterol (less than 200 is desirable)
165 Triglycerides (less than 150 is normal)
43 LDL (bad) Cholesterol (less than 100 is optimal)
44 HDL (good) Cholesterol (normal is 40-50)
5.6 A1C (4-5.9 is normal)

Great in some areas, marginal in a couple. My HDL is up and my LDL is down so that’s all good. My Triglycerides are up somewhat which is troubling. They did a couple of new tests, or at least ones I haven’t reported before.

White Count 7.4 (normal range is 4.3 to 10)
Thyroid 2.94 (normal range is .3 to 3)

They put me on a low dose of a blood pressure medicine to protect my kidneys. And life goes on.
