ok here goes, typing this whilst ofline checking to see if it works,
IT ,WORKS time is 1-20am, couldnt sleep,
Can Anyone tell me Please
(dx type 2 may 15th) what these levels mean
CHOL 6.2... HDL 1.78.... LDL 1.8.... TRIG 1.3
I was given these figures when i asked nurse at dx 15th May
but i dont know what to make of them, and dont know what to compare them with, all i know is what i was told that my my cholesterole, should be 4 or less.
It was suggested to me by the DR to take Simvastatin to lower the CHOL, which i was reluctant to take, i dont really know why, other than not wanting to take more pills, the Nurse said i should take them as well,...I decided i wasnt going to take it.
I have been having tests to see if i have Angina,I had an ECG, then an E C G Exercise, on 25th June, when i was told by the Heart Nurse that i should take the Statin,....so i have been taking it,
I have also had, an Echocardiogram without an injection 14th July and another one, with an injection, last Fri, i had results of that on Wed,and was told i am ok, that they will keep a check on me, and give me a pumpspray to use if i get chest pain, or for the pains i get in my back occasionaly.
I was told, my chol level is down to 3.2...and due to taking the Statin, still not happy with having to take it, wondering if i really need to
I Also, had a result last Mon from a B T.. I had for Haemoglobin AIC that is 6.2.....again i dont know what it means,
Would appreciate feedback , as ever, Thanks
