No need to fast before your cholesterol test

Should you fast before a cholesterol test? I find that some of you get a bit cranky if indeed you are fasting before your cholesterol assessment..... Studies now show that it isn't really necessary to have a cholesterol test on an empty stomach. I am relieved by this finding..... It will make it easier to have a pleasant physician/patient visit.
