I expected to see a new low on my LDL, a number closer to 60 than the 109 My (limited) understanding of LDL is this: The "number" reading corresponds to volume of LDL. LDL can be composed of small particles. You need a lot of them (large particle count) to get volume reading of 109. But if you particles are large, you need a small number of them (small particle count) to make up the volume of 109. Not knowing the particle size, the number, by itself, doesn't tell you anything.
