Thank you NHS - a bit of an essay.
At the end of November I finally asked my doctor (I was long term GP averse - over 10 years) if I could have something done about my knee, which was locking several times a day and making many days complete right-offs re-walking, even round the house. By January I'd had an MRI and an operation booked

Statins advised at cholesterol level of 5.6
IMO your doctors advice is complete c..p! REvise your diet, exercise regime and try plant stanols first. Don't forget there is a vested financial interested in getting everyone on statins!

Flora pro.activ 3 week challenge pack... is that really worth trying?
Hi All, I am new here. Not sure if it was discussed before. Recently my doctor advised me to do some exercise. He said I may have high cholesterol, test results yet to come. So I did some research on google and signup for Flora's free lowering kit. Its free after all. http://www.floraproactiv.co.uk

Is Life Better With Butter?
This is because it has been found that saturated fat also raises our levels of
HDL
(the good
cholesterol
) which protects us from heart disease.

Wow I got the right pace at last.
Cholesterol
(LDL
cholesterol
) levels have dropped but the good
cholesterol
(
HDL
cholesterol
) has increased. Blood sugar levels have also gone down to the lower side within the range. All other related results are normal.

Impact of taking up running on cholesterol ?
So last week I went back for a retest to see the impact of this healthy lifestyle on my
cholesterol
and guess what? It has gone up! My 'good'
HDL
is up from 1.9 to 2.3 but my 'bad'
cholesterol
has stayed exactly the same so my overall level is now 7.1.

Great Cholesterol Myth
Let us see what Dr Malcom Kendrick has got to say on cholesterol control and heart disease citing from the famous Framingham Heart Study , one of the most respected and longest run heart studies ever..I particularly urge those who quote ADA guidelines for fat restrictions to read the excerpt from Dr

Hi, anyone who also got too low HDL-cholesterol?
I have tested my
cholesterol
a few times, but normally my
HDL
is too low. Most other
cholesterol
readings are okay. my GMP speculates it is due to my overweight(or rahter obesity), but i am just 35 years old. she has just recommended me to loose weight and exercise more....

For those who have been diagnosed with soft plaque...
I saw my cardiologist yesterday and my
cholesterol
is now 4.4, with my Tot
cholesterol
to
HDL
cholesterol
ratio at 3.7. He said to stop the Lipitor for 2 weeks to see if the problems improve and then to start on 5mg Crestor instead.
