i have regularly had triglycerides above 400 since my early 20’s…. even being in great shape it runs in my family. They had me on Fenofibrate for years…. as i got older (40’s) i became less active, gained weight, developed diabetes…… and the grand finale…. an extreme case of pancreatitis that almost killed me. When i went into the ER, my triglycerides were over 5000…. that isn’t a misprint… 5000. Was off work over a year, spent weeks in the hospital, ended up getting half of my pancreas removed, spent months getting fed through an IV and all because of high triglycerides….. get on top of it NOW.
