At work, one guy tested 750, and they wanted to put him in the ambulence right then. He lived another 15 years before the heart attack got him.
A good way to quickly bring down your cholesterol is drinking LOTS of pomegranate juice. You should really see a doctor if it’s that high.

Umm… where did you see this?!

Zendo's avatar

@Fred931 On my cholesterol test, at the doctor’s office.

Are you 100% sure it wasn’t 252 or 525? I bet it was…

Zendo's avatar

I am not sure of anything. I am only going on what the lab who did the blood workup says.

Fred931's avatar

well, didn’t you read the piece of paper from the lab?

Zendo's avatar

Yes. It aid 2525…I am going back to the doc’s today to get a copy of it. My doctor uses these guys all the time and is quite certain their testing and analysis is accurate. I may have to go to another doctor to get another blood test.

Have you heard about the benefits of taking linseed oil for lowering and stabilising cholesterol? It’s really worth checking out. I believe that Q10 is also good for the same thing.
Good luck friend.

Um, what did your doctor say about this reading? Or did he not mention it?

If he didn’t say anything it would be akin to a auto mechanic not mentioning that all four tires are flat but clearly more serious.
