Why suddenly SOB?
Hi All I've not written in for a while as i firmly believe that if you have nothing intelligent to say, don't open your mouth. For those who remember i was diagnosed COPD just over 3 months ago, stopped smoking 3 months ago but had a reaction to quitting within 48 hours. That reaction actually lasted

So having seen a heart specialist

Did all the 'right' things and cholesterol got MUCH worse?!
Last July my total cholesterol was 5.2, LDL 3.9, HDL 1.6, Trigs 0.22. I had been taking Liptor 10mg every other day, but even that small amount was causing unacceptable side-effects (yes, I tried other kinds too), so I stopped. I lost 50lbs, started exercising moderately/intensively for a minimum of

Cholesterol in the NEWS
Two very interesting article in the copy of the daily mail in the health section. Looking at the cost comparison, "Will NHS have the budget for it?" This may not be new but very interesting. Jab cuts cholesterol better than statins and may halve patients' chances of suffering a heart attack and dying

My husband has just returned from his GP with a prescription for statins. He's feeling confused about whether to take them.
My hubby is 62 and a type 2 diabetic 5.6 (on medication) His blood pressure is normal. His weight is perfect for his height. His total cholesterol is 3.2 (he doesn't know the broken down figures). He's never had any heart problems and is in decent health otherwise. The doctor prescribed 20mg of Atorvastatin
