Hi Everyone, As I have reported on here, I am in the very slow process of lobbying to get an extension of my allocation of TCZ. This will take ages, I know … Federal Parliament is sitting at the moment, an election is looming, and our current Health Minister is retiring after the election. Not a good

Does Prednisolone affect Cholesterol levels and blood pressure??
Back in February (pre PMR) my cholesterol was HDL - 1.5 and
LDL
3.8. Six months later (four months after commencing Pred) my levels are now HDL - 2.4 and
LDL
- 5.0!! My levels have never moved by much over the years and this was something of a shock particularly as it has happened so quickly.

Hello, sorry I ask “alotl” questions.
I have very high cholesterol,
LDL
, and triglycerides. I am trying to weigh out whether to take a statin drug, since doing so will likely worsen my neuropathy.

JAK2 and TET2
Does anyone else here have this double mutation? After nearly three years of Pegasys my JAK2 has dropped from over 80% to c. 14% but my TET2 has only dropped from 55% to 40%. Got results of my recent BMB and no change in fibrosis, still ‘an increase in thin reticulin, especially in areas of focal clustering

Latest monitor my health results.
Here are my blood test results, not all have ranges though, which is annoying. Vitamin D 172 nmol/L no range. Said it is high and I should stop taking it as too much can be harmful and there can be no more benefit derived from continuing to take it. Cholesterol profile 5.8 mmol/L( no range included

Triclycerides ratio versus HDL ?
My lipid profile has remained identical since last year, including HDL at 72/73. But triclycerides were 72 last year and now are 65. (I am 87). What does that mean ? And what action if any is necessary ?

Thoughts on cholesterol/statins
Just want to pick your brains, anyone who’s interested. My total cholesterol has increased in the last two years. These are the last three readings 5.2-5.5-6.0. I know 6 is borderline high; however, my HDL to total cholesterol ratio has always been good, present reading 2.83. My triglyceride levels are

Intermittent Claudication and Statin dosage
My cholesterol is sitting at 5.4% with my
LDL
at 3.86. Slightly down from my last reading of 5.8%. My VS nurse says that ideally your
LDL
should be 3. My AB Index on my right leg is -76 down from -81 twelve months ago,. My left leg is over 1 which is fine.

Darolutamide & Simvastatin?
Perhaps that has something to do with the makeup of
LDL
-chol. VLDL (very low density lipoprotein)-chol has a better chance of being taken up by cells. Cholesterol is the starting point for the creation of the sex hormones.

6 monthly update and potential treatment questions
All cholesterol parameters have increased but are within range except
LDL
which is 110mg/DL (should be less than 100). We got a 2D Echo done few months back and it was normal then. His total Testosterone has increased from 19ng/DL to 33ng/DL in 3 months (same period PSA fell from 2.6 to 1.2).

Kidney and liver issues with high thyroid antibodies?
He also has unusually low cholesterol # in both HDL and
LDL
but has had this as long as I have known him...50 years. He really looks the picture of health. He did try LDN about 3 years ago, but only saw slight improvement in his thyroid antibody#s. I'm at a loss.
