trust me on this one..
take 3-5 grams of omega-3 fatty acids every day. Split it up over the day, of course! A doctor buddy told me to do this to fight inflammation in my tendons and joints and said on a side not, "you'll love your cholestoral values.." And OMG..my chol. values were always under the total 150, and i was taking 80mgs of accutane prescribed by a doctor and on a short primo cycle 6 weeker..stuff is magic..trust me. It takes about a month to start it's magic but don't worry, you'll love the results!

long story. had an episode where I passed out, girlfriend thought I seizured. started checking my blood glucose and the shit was getting low and I was starting to feel faint, still happening. I have to keep a gatorade with me at all times and sip on it if I feel low in sugars. oh and of course, I have to eat every couple of hours (as do we all on here). well, doc said it was reactive hypo/hyperglycemia(i forgot which). and that was triggering the passing out. So while I was there I did ask him to do the blood tests and i'll also be getting a heart echo and ekg (just to be safe he said). I did also get the following
sodium - 138
potassium - 4.0
creatnine - 1.1
all of which were in normal range. wondering what he's gonna say when he sees that ldl #.
as for time on time off, i'm definitely not doing more than 1 maybe 2 cycles a year, and usually 8-10wks, so i do take plenty of time off. i guess we all just expect the values to be jacked while we're on. i just can't imagine being on all year round with those values. that's a friggin heart attack waiting to happen.

sesapure
fish oil
red yeast rice extract
though sounds like diet and cardio may be factors.
those cholesterol levels are quite bad for someone not using orals.

I take EFA's all the time, whether on or off... definitely recommend it not only for cholesterol, but a host of other benefits.
Also take Sesapure and Glucorell all the time. Now my liver enzymes and cholesterol only ever get slightly elevated after cycle.
Green tea, garlic, niacin, and policosinol also are good ideas.

Yeah, it was more than likely from the Winny. That stuff will murder the HDL levels. Although yours right now are not entirely low compared to others i've seen with single digit figures. Your LDL is high though. Make sure to clean up the diet and add in some sort of cardio a couple of times per week if you are not already doing so.
Those supplements suggested by Macro and others will help some as well.

if it makes you feel any better i just gotthe following labwork done:
total cholesterol: 291 (desirable <200)
LDL: 241 (desirable < 130)
HDL: 28 (desirable >40)
liver enzymes 60s and 70s (normal ,45)
i have been on too long (15 weeks) so jhave take this as a warning and am off now. i have seen these kindof results before and retested a few weeks after going off. results will improve failry quickly.
i am open with my doctor about my steroid use. at my age i see zero point of lying,it never works. it was obvious something was up two or three years ago when my once stupendous vitals spiked for no apparent reason.
he is non judgemental but consistently warns me against doing steroids. he worries about the long term consequences of cholesterol and liver abnormalities. he was unable to answer if going on and off could result in long term damage as there have never been studies done.
i often read posts from respected mature EF members about never going off. perhaps they are immune, or able to control such abnormalities. i think its too dangerous to stay consistenly on.
btw i must fess up that i take no ancillarieswhile on for liver and cholesterol. maybe it is time i reconsidered. i figure since i go off for a reasonable time that is adequate. any opinions appreciated on this subject.
