How did you guess that it was Mr K who got the house spotless. It was like a military operation. Sad to say that he does a much better deep clean than I ever did. No - he doesn't don the marigolds nor a pinny.have an amazing time with daughter and family but be kind to Mr K after all that housework. Does he don Marrigolds and pinny like moi?
It may be that there is no simple answer to your question.A query for you. I simply don't understand the almost visceral antipathy to stains on here. There is no simple explanation of the kind I would expect someone to be able to give a year 7. Please don't direct me to the thread by Mr BB - I've been thereBullet points would be good. It all seems very tribal.
Hug for the damage done by being statin intolerant but thanks for the answer. As you say, from what I have read as many credible sources show benefits as show none or harm. I had never heard of statin intolerance which makes a huge difference obviously.It may be that there is no simple answer to your question.
I think that if you have heart problems they would be a vital medication which can prolong your life but, as with everything, there is no 'one size fits all '.
I was one of the unlucky ones and my medical records state that I am statin intolerant. My consultant said that it would only take 4 years for the muscle damage to repair but it took 7 and I am not convinced that damage done to my heart muscle is fully repaired yet.
Research is very confusing as some studies show huge benefits and some studies dont show any benefits.
Actually, the doctors didn't explain what statin intolerance was. So I don't have a clue as to why statins affected me so badly.Hug for the damage done by being statin intolerant but thanks for the answer.

The more I read around T2 management, diet in general and wellbeing the less I feel confident that scientists and doctors actually "know" anything. I'm increasingly suspicious of members who claim to have "the answer" You seem to have it sorted for you but never profess to know enough to say this is how you do it. A rare breed these days.Actually, the doctors didn't explain what statin intolerance was. So I don't have a clue as to why statins affected me so badly.
I did have an interesting conversation with one doctor who said that they don't think that lowering cholesterol is what benefits patients but that statins do something else which benefits patients but as yet they don't know what that something else is. That was in 2012 so hopefully they are closer to finding out what that 'something else ' is.
I stopped reading research on statins when I read that older women live longer with higher cholesterol. I think, if I am remembering correctly, they mention 7.0. As my normal cholesterol is 4.6 this was rather worrying information.
Sheesh. That all sounds like the script from a training video ending with the words if any of you ever do that you'll be struck off on the spot. There seems to be a general atmosphere of whistle a happy tune, look the other way and pretend it is all rosy doing the rounds just now. Poor so and sos like yourself seem to be just so much collateral damage. Best wishes for a return to rude health asap.Afternoon campers
A warm welcome to a few new faces
Been out of sorts last week or so.
Got Results back. say unlikely it's covid.(.not entirely reassuring.)
Test itself rather fraught.
Done outside, testers on huts decking
The testee, other side of rail
"done one before..?"
"No"
"Good then I'll ignore you ,
throat, nose, rubbish in the bin...".. anyway as I was saying.
Seemed to be interrupting "instructors?" Talk with colleague while taking test...my bad
Simple instructions, rather too snappily.
Given, imo
Test done, then told to bin test packaging etc into pop up bin
Mmhh .bin no workee
Solution came quick, presume not the first to mention ..."that ok, just lift the lid"
First rule of dealing with public
being called to a park,
while feeling unwell,
to be rather dismissed as a nuisance to your conversations, is THINK
What WILL make them snap.
Bingo.
A simple query as to whether they aware it's an infectious disease they are testing for during a pandemic, and I'd rather forgo the delights of lifting a bin lid after so many other potential "carriers" had been there before me, thank you very much.
Then to have to move through the rather large crowd they successfully corralled behind us, before we could head to the exit, doesn't bode well.
Thought the plan was to mitigate not facilitate the pandemic.
Anyway, calmed down. cough easing, sniffles fading, fatigue less of an issue, but still producing way too much phlegm.
Afraid the T2D has rather taken a back seat again, the last week or so
Be back on the case, soon enough.
Take care all

So they're not actually a dastardly woke plot then. Who knew?Statins calcify any plaque in your arteries so as long as it doesn't break off and cause a stroke you should be ok.
Warfarin does the same trick.
Their both Vit k antagonists.

I should have added I wouldnt have them at any price!Statins calcify any plaque in your arteries so as long as it doesn't break off and cause a stroke you should be ok.

There is a test to see which patients are affected by statins.
