Why so many have cardiac disease
After 8 weeks on 20 mg. of Crestor my
LDL
was comfortably below 55, more in keeping with the
LDL
of newborns. My take away is that main stream medicine is still in the dark ages in their practice of under treating
LDL
.

Following LeoPa's “On CLL, diet and possible connections.”
One study showed that CLL patients suffer from hypercholesterolemia, observing elevated
LDL
levels in 75% of CLL patients [16].

No health issues before diagnosis, now everything is a little scary
The next issue was my cholesterol , reading 5.2 in January though
LDL
was far too high . Again done again whilst on abx and jumped to 6.3, again with
LDL
too high though HDL accounted for most of increase. Had call re statins and have refused.

Cholesterol targets are different if on medication?
“If you are getting secondary prevention treatment for your heart condition, you may have different
LDL
-cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol levels to aim for. The guidelines say you should aim for :
LDL
cholesterol level of 2.0mmol or less. Non-HDL cholesterol level of 2.6mmol or less. “

LDL analysis testing
My
LDL
is now 1.4 which is good. But I have had side effects to Rosuvastatin 10mg and my GP has told me to stop them for a month and see what happens to the levels in 1 month. My cardiac rehab team said that I may not even need Statins as it depends what fats are in the
LDL
.

High, rising Lp(a) and CAC but low LDL
My
LDL
has never been a problem, but I have calcified arteries. Then, just six months ago I discovered I had significantly elevated LP(a). The nasty twin brother of
LDL
that likes to stick in your arteries.

Cholesterol
My
LDL
is high, so is my HDL and my Triglycerides are normal. I don't have any heart disease. Lipoprotein A and B a little elevated. It is hereditary but I have had tests and it is not familial. All genetic testing came back negative. Any good articles, literature etc. that is factual.
