I'm SO upset, Choles. 310!! Dr. gave me Lipitor
I am stunned. I went for bloodwork on Saturday and today the Dr. wanted me in his office pronto. My total was 310, 192 Triglycerides, 51 HDL and 220 LDL. He put me on Liptor because it was so high that he wanted it to come down asap.
I want to stick with this woe, which my doctor is supportive of, but how? This eliminates cheese, egg yolks, most fat, butter, sheesh....
I only wish I had my bloodwork done BEFORE I started CAD, then I would know if it was the woe (or my lack of doing it properly) or if I might just be predisposed to high Cholesterol. My mom has a time with hers and takes Liptor to control it. She is such a good eater and has really maintained that woe, but she still needs the Lipitor.
::sigh:: I'm so depressed
