Yeah....the doc said it could have been a lab error. So I'm re-doing the test tomorrow after a fast overnight to see if that was the case. We were both a little alarmed by the numbers until I went back and looked at my history of tests, which over the last 5 years have all been within +/- 5%. So the sudden spike either means something else is going on (like thyroid or liver issues), or they just screwed up the test.
I assumed going into the doc's office yesterday that he was gonna tell me to go on Lipitor right away. Instead, it looks like we just have a little sleuthing to do first.
