If I already have my numbers for my cholesterol, triglycerides and HDL….wouldn’t I also have my LDL numbers too? Figured I was missing something with the app but that’s all I see it does. So when I put those numbers in from my blood work it gave me a result that was 2 digits lower than what my bloodwork came back as for my LDL….so what’s the point in this app??????
