High cholesterol diagnosis
I had an open VBG 12/27/01 and have lost 62 pounds. I am diabetic on
insulin. Before surgery I took 9 pills a day and 75 units of
insulin to control it. Now I am only on 10-15 units of insulin a
day! After having two seperate tests to check my cholesterol, I
have been told it is now high(it never was before!) and have started
taking Lipitor for it. Last August my total cholesterol was 168 and
my LDL was 64. Now, it it 211 and 141! Does anyone have any ideas
as to why it is going up.
Thanks.
