@rn.alina1: Cholesterol isn’t the bad guy; older adults do best with total cholesterol around 180-220. #cholesterol #heartdisease #netflixdocumentary #bigpharma #hearthealth
Yes! As a healthcare provider, it is infuriating! They change the goal post so often, patients will always be considered “ill”!

My grandpa is 98. His cardiologist tells him to continue his diet of whole milk, bacon, butter, and eggs. He still travels across the country in his Winnebago.

I work for a life insurance company with over a trillion in death benefit. They barely flinch at cholesterol, but they do care about BP.

It’s not total. It’s LDL and inflammation .

I had a stoke most likely due to trauma from a car accident at 48. I was put on a statin because they wanted my cholesterol below 80! It went down to 100 from 160. I felt like crap and was in a fog. I need my brain to function at max capacity because I have a highly technical job. I found a new dr and stopped the statins with the understanding if it got over 200 and stayed there we could discuss. 5 years later it hasn’t and I haven’t gone back on them.

what tests should we be requesting? I did calcium scoring and got a 0 (yay) but I know there are others I should have done.

Lost confidence in Dr when husbands numbers were high, pushed a statin.W/diet and exercise,ALL numbers were in range.Still continued to push statin “for prevention”. Makes zero sense.

My Dr said that even if my cholesterol was within normal range, the recommendation is to be put on a statin drug because of my age.
