High Cholesterol.....

It's back..... darn it... My dad died aged 56 of a massive heart attack due to clogged arteries... NOT something I want to do.... Now I REALLY have to watch my diet....
Cholesterol 250 HIGH
Triglycerides 172 HIGH
HDL 41
LDL 175 HIGH

I will be taking Lipitor as that is what my insurance will pay for!

Those are some bad cholesterol numbers girlfriend. I think it may just be genetic bad luck so the meds should help hopefully. But diet and exercise will help too. You can look on my blog to see what the numbers mean. And you can go walking with me anytime or come swim in our pool for exercise :) Exercise and healthy eating are not that fun, but they are better than dying.
