Okay, you may need to sit down for this. Corin has some ~mostly~ good news for a change.

Drs. office called and said my sugar, thyroid and PSA numbers were all okay. I do, however, have high cholesterol (again). Not that I’m surprised.

This time at least, he didn’t suggest drugs. He said let’s try a low cholesterol diet and come back in November.

I still have to do the stress test and the roto-rooter test.

Low Cholesterol = no meat or fat or sugar. Have fun!

Call Roto-Rooter, that’s the name, and away go troubles down the drain.

WooHoo! congrats on the good bloodwork! I lowered my cholesterol by eating a combination of hot oatmeal and multigrain cereal every other day. I cook a 1/2 cup of the cereal combo, with 1/4 cup of a dried fruit blend in the microwave, then add a packet of Splenda, and a couple of tablespoons of fat-free 1/2 and 1/2. Talk about stick to your ribs!!

On the days I don't eat the hot cereal, I have a cup of plain low-fat yogurt, 3/8 cup of a good, not fatty and not too sweet granola, and a packet of Splenda. Mmmm.

Evening, that sounds like a fairly positive medic report. Congrats.

There is something about ‘low colesterol diet’ and November that seems a bit strange. Isn’t that about the time that Starbucks has their eggnog and/or pumpkin lattes? :-)
