I was wondering if there would be ONE other person that might have a different thought than all the others here (and in all other mainstreet doctors offices) . Because , like anything , there are SOME experts, Drs. that see things different than the majority. I am in excellent health, low blood pressure, high cholesterol levels. I did my research, and choose to believe this :
Many studies have shown that old people with high cholesterol are healthier and live longer than people with low cholesterol. In fact it is dangerous to reduce cholesterol in old people. And yet that is exactly what our doctors are doing.
"The older the person is the more their low blood cholesterol poses a risk of stroke, while it has been clearly demonstrated that high blood cholesterol protects older people from strokes, heart disease, infections, cancer and many other health problems."

This post will give everyone else posting great joy in using their "rumak is crazy" remarks. Not necessary, since of course they can do as they want. My doctor just last week saw me and said, "for a person your age you are exceptional" .
