    Ramanth, I hope you feel better soon. My hubbies triglycerides have been as high as 800 or 900 He is pre-diabetic, he excercizes regularly and is watching what he eats. He is not overweight at all.

    I have never heard of those triglycerides causing fatigue though. Not that they can't I just haven't heard of that.
    don't breed or buy while shelter dogs die....

    I have been frosted!

    Thanks Kfamr for the signature!

    Yikes!

    Yeah, I'm calm about all this. It's good to know, but not get worked up over. True the number is high but it's not that high.

    Time to get my butt in shape and watch what I chow down on.

    It'll be interesting to see what the doctor says. It's good to at least have partial answers, even if you're not sure what they mean yet, isn't it? Eat some fish for me - I'm allergic to it now, so cannot have any myself!

    Kimmy, it will help for you to talk with the doctor. I don't know whether either of those things you mentioned would have anything to do with the fatigue problems you're having. But, it is good to know what you need to work on, regardless.

    I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that you get this thing figured out and feel better soon.

    Still keeping you in my thoughts. I will be curious to hear what the MD makes of these tests.

    Take cinnamon for your triglycerides! 1/2 to 1 teaspoon a day or add it to what you eat. I put a teaspoon on my oatmeal every morning and then take a cinnamon capsule in the evening.

    Since getting off the statin drugs I am doing th natural stuff and just had mine checked and my triglycerides was 77..... (helps a lot that cinnamon is one of my favorite spices too!)
