stopping bisopromol
My cholesterol was in an acceptable range so my consultant was happy to explore and we dropped my stating to 40mg and monitored for 3 months, had another cholesterol blood test and I’m still in a good range on the HDL/
LDL
ratio. I’ve also dropped my bisopromol from 5mg to 2.5mg.

How long trouble-free?
Except for high cholesterol (Total 6.9,
LDL
4.9, HDL 1.3,), none of the risk factors were applicable. There were no symptoms until one day I experienced pain on exertion. I was referred to a cardiologist who asked me to get CT angiography done.

My Doctor doesn’t seem to concerned but because the 10mg of Atorvastatin for high cholesterol isn’t bringing my
LDL
level down enough he now asking me to take Ezetimbe but l am concerned as my liver enzymes are still above the normal range.

Advice on Thyroid blood tests please?
hello everyone, could I get some input on my brother’s thyroid results please as I am attending his GP appointment with him. He has had three lots of thyroid testing since December 2023 and I think the first two results indicated Hypo and I believe that he should have been treated. However, a third

Results out of range. Deal with high cholesterol
I would like Endo to lower dose of Levo to 100mg and put me on small dose T3 to help lower
LDL
. Cholesterol has improved on 125mg. Cholesterol issue is my and my doctor's main concern. How realistic is my request, as I may be tipping over into hyperthyroid? Will T3 make hyperthyroid worse?

Update following long-awaited GP appointment for results of Thyroid blood test
Had a long lecture about high
LDL
and the risk. I explained that I couldn't really do any more to improve it as I already follow a fairly healthy diet, don't drink, don't smoke, I'm quite fit & exercise regularly, not overweight etc etc.
