I get monthly blood tests because I am on accutane, my question is how to interpret them.
All my doctor tells me is that my cholesterol is at 129(up19 points since I began accutane) and that my triglycerides are at 8.
I know what the cholesterol means but what the hell are triglycerides.
I'm sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but I am curious about what they are.
Thanks for the help, also if there is anything else i should look at please let me know. He lets me look at the charts so I can find out whatever I need.
