OP, not even you can beat the laws of thermodynamics. Doesn't matter how you count. Lower again. Don't question yourself if it's normal or not for your stats as long as you feel OK. Do it for 4-6...
I did a few google searches and all the links came back with mixed finds. My gf is an endo doctor specialized in diabetes and she always requires fasting before lipids panel. OP I suppose if you have...
