Thanks to you both....I know a lot more now than I did.
My latest blood work from last Friday has my Dr. very concerned. I have been doing VLC for 5 months, I’ve lost 33 lbs., but my total cholesterol and my LDL skyrocketed.
Apparently for a very few people, LC has an adverse effect on cholesterol numbers...for most folks cholesterol improves. I’m one of the unlucky ones apparently.
Dr. wants me on Crestor 10 mg., and I’m very nervous about taking a statin. All you hear is how bad they are.
Thanks again for the info.
Maeve
