Results from recent fasting blood test.
During a wellbeing examination 3 weeks ago by my gp, my tryglicerides and tc levels were found to be 54 and 14.4 respectively. I have an appointment with a specialist in 1 week. I feel a little let down by the lack of support from my gp, although I have a myriad of questions ready for my specialist.

High cholesterol, what to do?
My last blood test showed a level of 6.5, too high, I know. I tried statins for a couple of months, but they made me so tired & achy that I couldn`t function on them. I don`t have any other risk factors for heart disease, but my gp has been putting pressure on me to go back on them. I can`t face that

Hi, I've recently been diagnosed with having high cholesterol at 5.7, I'm 36. My sister who is 34 has cholesterol at 5.9
Both my parents have high cholesterol although not over 7 and my dad has angina. Could this be FH ?

Nebulised Bupivicaine
So my consultant has started me on nebulised bupivicaine. For those who don't know, bupi is an aneathetic used in epidurals, nerve blocks etc. Apparently there's very few people in the country on this specific aneasthetic and I'm the only person in Wythenshawe on it according to my doctors. What I

All this talk of being young and what we did in out childhood has got me brooding a bit. I don't remember being happy past the
age of 10/11, It was then that I got terrible acne and to make things worse my eyesight became very bad and I had to wear glasses full time. I got called so many names - ugly, speccy 4 eyes etc. that it permanantly damaged my self esteem and confidence. Isn't it awful how cruel kids can be to each

Cholesterol is also good for you, as without it you would be dead.
I can't find any blog on here that shows how good cholesterol is for the human body and without it you would be dead? It is virtually impossible to explain how vital cholesterol is to the human body. No cells, no bone structure, no muscles, no hormones, no sex, no reproductive system, no digestion

what type of cholestrol does saturated fat like butter and cheese have? Is it good or bad cholestrol.
When we eat saturated fat it has some amount of cholestrol also.If a person is on LCHF diet and taking 100 gms carbo /day and to replenish calorie if he is taking 1oo grams of saturated fat also.what will be the effect of this cholestrol on CVD.

Please can someone tell me whether my cholesterol numbers are borderline or not. I had a fasting cholesterol test before Xmas.
. Total cholesterol 5.9, triglycerides 0.9, HDL 2.2, LDL 3.3, ratio 2.7. Would the subsequent summons for the NHS Health Check have been as a direct result of the test do you think? The nurse who did the health check told me that one of the drs said the total cholesterol was too high but another

Starting Statins for my 7 year old???
My youngest daughter inherited FH from me and has so far had 5 fasting bloods done. Her most recent showed LDL levels to be 6.5. We are seeing the consultants next for our routine family appointment and will be discussing if Statins and if this is now the next step. However I would just like to know
