Hi. I just did fasting lab numbers of: 140 Glucose, LDL 195.7, HDL 49.5. Hemoglobin A1C 7.1, Triglycerides 114. This is my question:
Glucose and Cholesterol High. Triglycerides Normal, A1C just above normal range. All other lab numbers normal but Testosterone 11.3, in Normal Range but Low. How do I interpret this?
This is the real issue: I am 45 and exercise very very hard every day. Bike Hard, Swim an Hour 2X Week, Lift Weights 3-4 x week. Bike is main exercise 30-40 min Hard per day. I look like the picture of health, I am very muscular. My stomach is flat. People ask me if I am a bodybuilder.
I am 5'8, 215, built like Emmitt Smith - not Emmitt today, Emit 7-8 years ago when still playing. I take Metformin. Diet is Good, Not Perfect but Good. What more is a guy to do and how should I interpret these numbers? Thanks in advance for any info.
