Re: Re: Re: Goldiec, I just learned that I will be taking a statin. Fun.
Sherri, I will share anything I find that might help you. There are many people that take a statin for cholesterol. Years ago I had high cholesterol but I've got it down to normal and my numbers are good. I know that you eat well and I don't think that's the problem. I'm not a big fan of meat but I know chicken and fish are a good alternative to beef. It's been a long time since I've eaten ice cream at home. I only have some if we stop at an ice cream stand in the heat of the summer.

Re: Goldiec, I'm thinking that you are right.
Thanks for sharing your insight. It is much appreciated. My maternal grandmother had diabetes and my mom takes a statin for cholesterol. The hypothyroidism comes from my dad's side of the family.

Good Morning
Sherri, I was thinking some of these problems may be hereditary.

Good Evening
Sherri, I'm so sorry to hear this news. I know very little about sugar diabetes but if I find anything that will help I will let you know. Take care!

Re: Re: Thank you, Kabu. I best go buy some fruit.
I forgot to add that I am probably headed for another prescription on top of the two that I already take. My appointment is next week, so I will have to wait and see what my PCP tells me to do.

Sorry to read this. I got results back from bloods taken too. My cholesterol is off the charts as well. It is always high but I have a slow heart beat and blood pressure but now I have to take a pill because it is more than double what is called normal and all bad cholesterol. I have fruit to munch on!!
