If you eat right, don’t drink or smoke, get plenty of rest and exercise, you get eight more years in an old folk’s home.
Thank you for the encouragement
My cholesterol came back within normal range. When I mentioned this to a neurologist he shot me down saying for stroke purposes we want to see it under a number that I can’t remember. Seems like he said 50 . The number was so low I was shocked but it might have been higher more in the 70s range.
But it really doesn’t matter in my case because I have a condition so rare very few surgeons in the world operate on it because the surgery is so risky and it does involve my vascular system.
So I just said forget all the cholesterol hubbub. He ordered Plavix for me but so much mixed reviews on it I am not taking it.
