I am a big, big fan of the food threads on the board, both the meal orientated (breakfast thread, dinner thread) as well as the dining out threads.

And, man - do some of you eat well. Like really, really well. Most of which I can only dream of, as my diet is severely curtailed on docs orders.

So, my recent cholesterol check gave the following:
Cholesterol 121 mg.dl
Triglyceride 149 mg/dl
HDL-CHOL 44mg/dl
LDL-calculated 47.2 mg/dl

all of which makes me pretty good to trot although one or two figures remain to be improved. Docs assessment was "excellent".

So, all my suffering has somewhat paid off - how about the rest of you? Ever been checked, check regularly - or waiting for the chest pains to kick in first?
