[QUOTE="HMBgal, post: 709056, member: 13260"] Yeah, I've got that scenario. Very high numbers on the good stuff, but bad stuff numbers are too high, too. I'm at a good weight, I teach fitness classes and and I'm at a good weight and always have been. When I first got the call about my numbers, I went on a strict diet for 6 months, took psyllium tablets, the works. And it made not one bit of difference. So I dunno. I did have the c-reactive protein test that's supposed to show if you have inflammation (as in the blood vessels from cholesterol accumulating) and that showed up negative, too. My doctor said not to bother with statins in my case because she doesn't believe in treating just numbers. My other health indicators are really good (low blood pressure, resting heart rate, etc). So I just stopped worrying about it. [/QUOTE]
