My doc called and said everything looks good but my cholesterol was a little low, 39. I'm not sure if that's good or bad and what I should about it? I was talking to the medical assistant. Any thoughts?

It is probably the "good cholesterol" but check you labs - ask for copy of them . To improve the good cholesterol - you need fish oil, exercise, and fish.

I have the same problem with my good cholesterol, but I always have. At one point it was 12 - doctor said it's dietary and hereditary - exercise supposedly helps.
