I went for a health check up on Monday,hadn't been for about two years,so far have received the following results.

Glucose just above normal.

Cholesterol 6.1

LDL bad Lipids 4 (should be 3)

I am awaiting HBAI results.

I received these by text,haven't spoken to doc about them can any one explain these to me,by the way my BMI was fine.

Is this a trick question?

Cholesterol should be below 5 and ldlcholesterol below 3

So you have high cholesterol like a lot of people

Would they text you if you only had days to live ?

what happens with these checks is that they release the results to you gradually ...

first you get the good/borderline stuff by text (as you have)

next they send round somebody from a law firm to talk about making a will

then you get a visit from a man from the co-op who talks about wood preference - mahogany or pine or oak sort of thing.
