So normal is less than 150 right? Mine is 996! Strange thing is my total cholesterol is under 200 and my damn HDL's are under 5 again and I'm not even on anything, well except for an antibiotic and some antihistamines! I eat relatively clean, take in a good amount of flax oil and natural sources of omega 3's so I just don't get it. The doc put me on Omacor to help out, so we'll see how it goes.
