In my blood test result, under cholesterol, besides Triglycerides snd HDL, it has LDL, which I know is bad cholesterol, it has in parentheses (calc) and the number 135.4 mg/dl. I read that the number should be below 100, but my result was not flagged. Everything else in the cholesterol was normal. 2 following.
Several known limitations make LDL-C a less accurate marker of cardiovascular risk than either non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), LDL particle number, or apolipoprotein B (apoB).
