    A bit Concerned, high cholesterol? Ketosis

    I just had a lipid panel done and was very surprised by the results. Total cholesterol 355, TRIGLYCERIDES 54, HDL 30, AND LDL 314. Is Ketosis causing this? Just wondering with the breakdown of body fat for a fuel source is causing high lipid values in blood by chance., I HAVE NEVER HAD MY VALUES THIS HIGH, AND I WOULD ATLEAST EXPECT A WAY HIGHER HDL, ALL I EAT IS OMEGA 3 EGGS, CHICKEN BREAST, FISH OIL, AND NUTS AND SALAD. Could this be false results? Usually my HDL is like close to 70. and by chance, could it be tren/prop doing this also. I am looking for a repeat test here soon. I have been on about 20 gram carb a day diet for the past 4 weeks.

    This is the first time testing my blood while on a cycle, so maybe will stabilize here after cycle is complete. Still don't know why HDLs are so low, thats odd

    Ill get some niacin and just recheck after I am done with my cycle. Maybe its high while on a cycle, Ive never checked it while on one before. My lipid panel is usually good, even with the same diet I am doing.

    yes, about 13-14 hour fast. All other labs check out great. Ive never had high total or LDL. always under 200. And HDL always above 60. I am hoping it is just from the cycle and not the diet. Diet is all good fats, but 314 LDL and 355 total is crazy. Should I just recheck after cycle is complete, about 4 more weeks left?

    your cycle can do that but wow 200 LDL would still be high. What compounds were you running?

    My total is always under 200( except for this time), My LDLs is usually around 90 ish. Im thinking its because I did BW right in middle of cycle I hoping, should resolve after. I am looking at rechecking in 6 months


    Running Tren 150 EOD
    Test Prop 50 EOD
    A-dex .5 EOD
    Caber- .5 twice a week
    Finastride ED

    Thanks for the help guys by the way

    Thanks man for the reassurance. Little concerning when you get random high numbers like that. I will let people know my results when I retest.

    Are you running any AI's? Runaway estrogen levels can play havic with your lipids.

    Just curious, How long before lipids start to return to normal values again after cycle? How many weeks after should I recheck my labs? I am hoping things should return to normal quickly since I am using short esters.
