Hi all. I have high cholesterol since having thyroid removed and would like to know if anybody has experience of improving cholesterol levels by increasing levo dose (irrespective of bloods). Thanks in advance for all TT /cholesterol related stories. Louisa

results of my check up
HDL ratio is 2.46 very good Cholesterol ratio was 1.9. The chart only goes down to 2 :) So outstanding. Pulse 60 Blood pressure 126/73 (and that’s after traveling in horrible traffic in the rain for 25 minutes to get there) Overall risk of CVD is 1.7% I think I’m going to make a power point about it

Latest Blood results
Hi, I have recd my latest blood results today from my doctor. She tells me everything is well within 'normal' ranges apart from my Iron which is a little low. No prescription though! She also said my kidneys are not functioning as well as they should and I need to have another test for them in January

Is promoting LCHF to FH suffers "criminal"?
This happened back in the summer and there was quite a bit of press coverage including things like this: "Cardiologist Anthony Dalby labelled Noakes’ advice for heart patients to switch from their cholesterol-lowering medication to his [LCHF] diet as criminal." http://www.sabreakingnews.co.za/2014/08
