"Good HDL/Triglycerides...bad LDL?": Cholesterol Management Community - Support Group, Aug 24, 2011

So I went to the doctor today to find out my cholesterol is high. I'm in my early 20s and did not expect this...but the doctor was confused as well! My HDL cholesterol was amazing at 97, but my LDL was 166 and Total cholesterol was 276. My triglycerides were really good as well at 52. The total cholesterol/HDL ration was 2.8. So everything was normal except LDL and Total.
