I'm a bit worried about my cholesterol levels after getting my test results. My total cholesterol is 179 mgdL, and my HDL is 54 mgdL, but my triglycerides are 255 mgdL. The LDL came in at 77 mgdL and VLDL was calculated at 50.9 mgdL. I've read that the TCHDL ratio is 3.3, and the LDLHDL ratio is 1.4are these numbers okay? Should I be concerned about my triglycerides and how they might affect my health? What should I do next?
