I Really Need Help About My Cholestrol Posted: 01-18-04 14:36pm
Hello everyone,
this is my first post to this forum. I'm
really nervous about something. Went to
my doctors, ordered some blood work from
me. Took my blood work and tested for
cholestrol, triglicerides, obvious things
for fatigue. Now i'm really paranoid
caue he called me at home and told me he
was concerned about my cholestrol and
triglicerides. Told me to come to his
office. So went to his office and he
told me I have extremely high
cholestrol(not sure of the count...I can;t
remember). Then he told me I may want to
work out, eat better etc.). Can here is
where the problem is. I work out
everyday, I definitely watch what I eat
etc. What I am saying is that I am in
the best shape of my life. I cannot
understand this. Then he told me it may
be heriditary. Talked with my parents to
see if anyone had high cholestorl and got
a definite no. Now what the heck is going
on with the body. I took 2 blood test
and each came back with higher levels.
My questions are how. And can I do
anything about this beside the medications
he recommended. I am supposed to take
one more test before he puts me on meds
but I have been procrasting cause i'm not
sure if I want the answer. I have been
doing more cardio and really watching what
I eat. Now i'm getting chest pains cause
I think i'm nervous. I think i'm loosing
my hair. I'm losin it guys but not
really sure why. Any ideas ...Could the
tests be wrong. Is there something wrong
with my liver. Help. Thanks guys.
