Fats and diet
I came across an interesting post at the Harvard School of Public Health. I've thought for a while that eating margarine instead of butter was a bit strange due to amount of chemicals in margarine but all this was due to the advice from 'professionals' to cut your fat intake. This article seems to backpedal

Are home cholesterol monitors worth buying?
Does anybody have experience of using a cholesterol monitoring device at home? They are similar to the blood glucose monitors and apparently the newer ones can measure HDL, LDL and triglycerides.

Should I be taking Statins?
I'm a 65 year old female - don't smoke or drink and I'm not obese. However, my cholesterol level has always been on the high side and I am due for another check next week. My father was diagnosed with angina in his early fifties, had his first heart attack when he was 52 and died from heart disease

What is going on - risk of CVD
My BP before treatment was 175/95 and my
cholesterol
was 8.3 (
HDL
of 1.3) before treatment. BP now reduced to 155/90. I've been having a few problems with the statins and i'm 40 so GP sent me to lipid clinic to check if I had FH.

Lp(a) and IMT scanning
Latest appointment at the lipid clinic had me badgering my consultant about IMT scanning. I won't be getting one as there is no funding for it in Lothian and my consultant says it's of little benefit anyway. After this I managed to persuade him to have my Lp(a) levels checked. He wasn't keen as it's
