Cholesterol up.

clover5

I'm really annoyed with myself. My cholesterol is up again. I've been monitoring it for a couple of years now, and maintaining good numbers with diet, exercise, and niacin, and fish oil. I can't take statins because of the muscular side effects. My previous check was in Dec: LDL 106, HDL 66. I was happy with that. But I took my eye off the ball. Started focusing more on pounds and less on heart health. A local hospital was giving free cholesterol tests for Valentines day so I decided to take advantage. To my dismay, my totals popped up to LDL 141, HDL 68. I'm very dissapointed, and feeling like I'm back at square one.
