 Cholesterol Question - Should I be worried?

I just had an independent {*filter*} test done at a local hospital.  I knew my
Cholesterol was high, but to be honest, am not really sure when to start
getting too concerned.  My cholesterol total was 349.  The Triglyceride was
365, HDL 39, LDL 237, and VLDL 73.  (I was also told my CHOL/HDL Ratio was
8.9)  I am a 37 year old female.  I know it doesn't look as good as it
should, but should I be rushing to my doctor?
Thanks,
Teresa

schedule an appointment with your primary physician who ideally should
be an internist.  this would not be considered an emergency/urgency (no
need to rush) but you would be wise not to minimize it.

I have been introduced to a new non-prescription, natural product which
can significantly lower cholesterol levels and the risks of heart
attack, as well as stregthening the heart itself. Although I am not a
medical professional, from what I hear you should definitely be
concerned about your levels, however, also be aware that most
prescription products to lower cholesterol have many, many side effects.
The non-prescription one that I mentioned is supposed to be really good.
i will be finding out more detailed information in the next few days.
Would you like to know what I find out?

Many of us have to watch our cholesterol around here. Take your Spam
elsewhere.

The above message was not spam. I don't believe in spamming. If bothered
to ask me I would have told you that I am well aware of watching
cholesterol and cardiovasicular disease. I have a major history of heart
disease in my family, many of which have died because of it. I currently
have high {*filter*} pressure and hear palpitations. I am hoping to take
preventative measures to ensure that my cholesterol doesn't get any
higher and that I do everything I can to keep it low and also prevent
future heart problems.

I want to share with others what I am finding out about safe and
effective solutions to heart problems which do not require prescription
medications which are often harmful. I apologize to you for trying to
help you and provide some potentially beneficial information and
solutions.

It is the way you wrote it -- as a "teaser". This is only done by those
selling snake oil as far as I know. Had you provided some actual
information in a separate post, rather than "teasing" in individual
replies, the accusation might not have been made. I'm not accusing, but
explaining. If you want to share, please do so openly.

Bryan,

I wouldn't have posted what I did had your post contained the actual
information asked if we'd like to know about. So many true spams are
written exactly that way, as Jon pointed out in his reply. Please accept
my sincerest apologies if a) you do intend to post the information; and b)
aren't trying to sell a product or MLM scheme here.

> Bryan,

O.K., now that we know it isn't spam (which I hear is really, REALLY high
in cholesterol.....) please share with us about your non-prescription
solutions.
Thanks,
Teresa

Ok so tell us about it. BTW, doesi it cost money for you to tell us?
If so, then it was SPAM.
