What's your HDL and LDL levels?

My HDL is 15, my LDL is 54.
My HDL has gone up 2 points since using Niaspan.

Tell me what your levels are I very curious.

Re: What's your HDL and LDL levels?

That's really low if its expressed in the same manner as my test. Looks like the Niaspan is working, better than 10% boost so far.
My last test results:
LDL 142
HDL 27
Better than previous check but I still have a ways to go.

Re: What's your HDL and LDL levels?

AA has your cholesterol number come down since you've been on the niacin? Are you taking anything else to lower cholesterol?
