14 year old son starting statins
I have agreed to my 14 year old son with FH starting pravastatin. Feeling a bit nervous about it. Consultant wants my 10 year old daughter to start them too but I want to hold off a bit longer for her. Would value any advice, support from others with children on statins or anyone who started statins

I do not understand the results given for my Thyroid test-please help.
I had a Thyroid test a couple of weeks ago as a consultant thought I might have an underactive Thyroid. It did appear that quite a number of my symptoms did suggest it is possible. I have to phone my surgery for the results and unfortunately they do not really know what to look for. All I was given was

Your Healthy food - is your Medicine 2
Importance of Fats Fat is an important part of a healthy diet. It is the most concentrated source of energy of all the food compounds. There's more and more evidence that many fats are good for us and actually reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. They also help our sugar and insulin metabolism

Re. these NHS health check-ups being run out over the country: i was called for cholesterol test in Dec 2012.
An earlier one, which I requested about 3 or so yrs ago, was borderline I think, but I didn't take much notice of the numbers back then. I do remember being given a diet sheet and tossing it in the bin! The latest results also came back as 'OK' but then after Xmas I was called for a health check up and

High Cholesterol & Thyroid?
Even if I say so, I eat healthily, drink only when at a social event - 1-2 times a month as I have no head for alcohol but on & off I suddenly have my cholesterol in the higher numbers.
