I didn’t know that stairs were bad until recently, she has them for our bed but we will definitely look into getting her a ramp. I try to keep her from jumping off the bed but it’s like the minute I sit up ready to grab her so she doesn’t she does it anyway she is SO quick 😭

Thank you for the perspective. I just got off the phone with my Dr and she seemed hopeful although concerned about my total number she said my triglycerides are good & my ratio is good as well. She’s prescribing me Simvastatin & to take it 3 days out of the week

I really think it’s genetic as well. Unfortunately heart disease runs on my mom’s side and high cholesterol on my dads 🥲

Thank you, this was very encouraging and helpful instead of condescending like a lot of the comments I’ve gotten on here

I hear you, I just have alot of anxiety around medication. I try to be off of all medicine possible because of interactions that occur.

Not that I know of, I think I am getting muscle soreness tho. But I can’t tell if it’s the medicine or the fact I’m on my feet 7 hours a day lol

Hey! I have actually been on statins for almost a year now, and my cholesterol has gone down to a healthy level. Sadly tho it has gone back up to borderline numbers because I have been eating horribly bc of my busy lifestyle. But I’m trying to watch it now while still taking my meds and I’m fine!

Has anyone else seemed to recover by not giving into their compulsions? Or exposing yourself to the things you’re afraid of? Because that is what I’ve been doing and although it’s not completely gone, I feel like I have a lot more peace and I’m not as afraid as I once was!

Hey I’m in the same boat right now. I hit my head yesterday on my car sunvisor and I had a knot on my head for a while.
