I'm in Greece, but it seems fairly unreasonable here as well. Other labs have the limit at 200 (it varies per lab), but 170 seems too low.

Greeks tend to have higher "normal" cholesterol levels. In other labs I have seen in Greece, they write as the limit 200.

I know of someone with TC around 240 and the doctor didn't prescribe statins. Not a medical advice.
