Knowing my cholesterol runs a little high I ramped up my exercise and altered my diet trying to avoid statins since I'm one of the 5% (so they claim) that gets joint pain. Well the numbers came in:
Cholesterol Total 238
HDL 47
Triglycerides 251
LDL 141
I don't eat sweets but I will have a beer or glass of wine after I get home from work and after exercise and eat healthy most of the time. I lift weights 3 times a week, walk 1 sometimes 2 miles during lunch and jog 2 miles twice a week.
I have a cardiologist appointment coming up and I know he's going to want me to try a statin again. Ugh.
