Thats propably very good, I'm looking at a copy of my blood test and it says :
3.05 ratio it goes on to say that anything below 3.50 is below average for coronary heart disease. 3.50 to 5.00 average risk and anything above is above average...but I also don't know much about it........  |

All the ratios and averages are posted in the sticky on the medical board "Help on Cholesterol". 2.7 is very good
