Tiptoeing my way down from 7mg (started in Dec. 2022 at 20) to 6.5, I noticed that I no longer bruise so easily (yay!) and my allergic contact dermatitis has returned (boo). But more significantly, I feel fatigued much of the day (I've been very active) and a bit depressed (I'm usually optimistic) until

Blood test and elevated ALT concerned
However my cardiologist is reluctant to change even my total cholesterol is 2.1
LDL
0.8 Tri 0.7 Hdl 1.0 I am 44,quite fit always and now I am doing good diet, exercises and walk regularly. Does statin elevate ALT? Should I request for further testing?

HDL cholesterol confusion
I've just been told my HDL is very high even though my
LDL
is normal range. I've been advised to take "lifestyle changes" to lower my HDL.

High LDL cholesterol associated with lower COVID mortality
Data from China indicate that high
LDL
cholesterol levels are associated with lower COVID mortality.
LDL
cholesterol plays an important role in immune response. Modern societies demonization of
LDL
could be hurting immunity.

Introducing a new member
One of my sisters and I also have elevated cholesterol levels, though my HDL/
LDL
ratio is relatively good. I suspect that the fibrillation was related to very elevated TSH levels but I've not been able to find any research on this.

Creatinine and LDH
I have hashimoto's and I have been seeing a functional medicine doctor because my endocrinologist was not helping. He recently ran a bunch of labs. Both my creatinine and LDH were lab low. Does anyone know what that would mean and if is connected with my thyroid in any way?

naltrexone
Has anyone out there tried low dose Naltrexone for their RLS? My doctor is considering this as part of a long term rotation plan to manage dependence and augmentation. I haven’t found a lot of information yet, but interested in having as many options

New therapies for RLS!! New research finally!
I have had RLS for 30 years, but when prescribed pramaprexole, of course, it made the monster worse. I did some research and there are two new therapies coming out. One is a new drug discovered by professor Dr. Stefan Clemens at Brody school of medicine...he discovered why augmentation happens...
