cholesterol levels
Three months ago my total cholesterol levels were 224 and my doctor wanted to put me on statins which I really prefer not to. So I tried 3gm taurine a day plus 900 mg of hawthorn. Unfortunately my cholesterol went UP to 232 but my HDl went from 84 to 96 and my chol/hdlc ration went from 2.7 to 2.4. My non HDL went from 140 to 136 and my tryglycerides went from 90 to 68.

Misdiagnosed???

I have had two more episodes within the past few weeks since leaving the hospital. When I look up costochondritis, the symptoms do not match what I had and continue to have. Besides....

Could Too Much 'Good' HDL Cholesterol Be Bad for You?
When it comes to protecting one's heart, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol -- or HDL -- has long had a reputation of being the "good" cholesterol, compared to the "bad" cholesterol -- LDL (low-density lipoprotein). But new research suggests that there could be too much of a "good" thing. Read more: https://wb.md/2NZCRuv

Heart Racing/bp spikes
Hello All This is my first time posting so plz bare with me. It is 1:49 am and I cant sleep. In the middle of the night my bp goes up to an awful number. Tonight it was 149/100 And my pulse is 100.
