[QUOTE="BigTex, post: 223133, member: 43589"] Just for the record, the niacin was absolutely not effective with me, never saw any changes up or down but the doctor put me on ezetimibe, 10 mg tablet. I tried a statin but had muscle soreness that was unbearable. I can't see that ezetimibe is doing much either, I have asked to be put on [B]PCSK9[/B],which is sold under the brand name at Repatha. He wants to see these numbers lower (LDL, HDL higher) but I don't see the problem. He said he is not concerned with Lipo (a) because it is mostly genetic, but my large particles are very high. My blood work showed CHOLESTEROL, TOTAL 154 Reference Range: <200 mg/dL HDL CHOLESTEROL 47 Reference Range: > OR = 47 mg/dL TRIGLYCERIDES 68 Reference Range: <150 mg/dL LDL-CHOLESTEROL 94 mg/dL Reference range: <100 CHOL/HDLC RATIO 3.4 optimal <=3.5 NON-HDL CHOLESTEROL 112 optimal <130 LDL PARTICLE NUMBER 1031 optimal <1138 LDL SMALL 131 optimal <142 LDL MEDIUM 184 optimal <215 HDL LARGE 4492 high <5353 LDL PATTERN A optimal A LDL PEAK SIZE 223.6 optimal >222.9 APOLIPOPROTEIN B 76 optimal <90 LIPOPROTEIN (a) 84 optimal <75 [/QUOTE]
