My cholesterol is at 250-ish... Obviously not much standardization across the EU, maybe something they should look into?
My reading is somewhat high, but my doctor (fat-ish, with a gigantic bushy beard, looks somewhat like a pirate, a little worse for the wear) told me that there is no "absolute" in this respect- I am close to 42, and weigh around 63 Kg fresh out of the shower- I am also "hyper-nervous", ie my fingernails are chewed to the quick (since I was 7), and I always shake- Not debilitating, but there is a definite permanent tremor to my hands.
So- I currently have a fast metabolism and pay scant attention to my diet. Doc says that while my reading is on the high side, I shouldn't worry overmuch
Also there should be 2 readings- the "good" cholesterol, and the "bad"...
I guess if you're not on lowering drugs you are basically OK
