Did Statins Help?

Pardon if this is riddled with typos but it's 2:30am. I got my lipid blood test results back yesterday.  I'm going to assume heading into perimenopause years shot my numbers up because nothing has changed food wise (though stress wise it's been astronomical the past few years which apparently contributes as well). A reminder, I was at 264 at the beginning of December and my shuck and jive speech to get my shit together didn't land well with her.  After a talk with my bestie who is on them convinced me (us) with her experience, I relented and agreed to go on them.

  1. thanks for the links - it is our stat holiday here in Canada - and I am laid up from Monday's surgery - finally starting to feel strong enough that I can walk around house - will try outside later if weather cooperates - super hot yesterday with high humidity sucked energy out of me in 3 seconds
