You got it, that pesky Lipoprotein-A was hiding there for along time! Regular blood work doesn't call for it. My other "indicators" where always solid so there was never a need to order the extra test. Fortunately, my stroke event was mild enough that maybe there's a chance to get ahead of this now, I hope.

Now, about that warm weather....
