Topics:High Cholesterol Risk Factors

My HDL went from 80 to 18.  I was diagnosed with mild Sarcoidosis a few months ago and noticed the severe drop in my HDL.  My triglycerides score is 95 and my Glucose level is 64. My LDL is 149, which is up from 120.  I work out six days a week, 6'1, weigh 180, low carbohydrate intake diet with no red meat, body fat is around 10 and no other health issues.  No one has been able to provide me with any insights on my predicament. Help!
