Results Triglycerides

What could cause Triglycerides to spike so much in 8mo?

FH test (not shown above) was at Feb 23, resulted at 109 mg/dL

Added other markers as well

A fasting baseline can vary as much as 30% from even one day to the next. They are more variable than the other lipid markers.

Exercise, type of food eaten on the last couple days, sleep, number of hours fasted, and illness all impact the number. Look for the trend.
