Maybe I confused this issue, realized link is to the blood glucose on-line converter instead of the cholesterol converter.
The first number on each line is in mmol/L , the second number is in mg/dl.
Mo's result of an LDL of 4.6 mmol/L is equal to 177.9 mg/dl (the system used in the U.S.)
This is the Cholesterol Converter: http://www.onlineconversion.com/cholesterol.htm

Yes must be!? I happened to find them from way back when I wrote them on another forum straight after I received them. I will add that I have no interest in cholesterol as I dont believe it shows/proves anything at all. I think that counting how many pairs of socks I own is a far better marker lol
