It's taken me a while, but I finally found a website that gives conversion tables for US values compared to the rest of the WORLD which uses SI (système internationale). It's a long document, but you'll find Cholesterol and Triglyceride tables approx. halfway down the page ... http://www.neosoft.com/~uthman/lab_test.html ... I think I'm going to flag this site, since it provides tables for other values too, such as blood sugars, kidney and liver function values..
