Just came from PCP.  6 weeks ago my lipid panel was so good she cut my statin in half to 10mg.  This time my total cholesterol was 111 with my ldl at 51.  My triglycerides were 96.  So she took took me off statin all together!!!

 

So far I have ditched my cholesterol med, my high blood pressure med, and my metformin.  I still will need to take insulin for life as I have been type 1 since childhood.  But the type 2 like symptoms I developed with my weight are gone.  Oh, and my wife says I no longer snore and do not stop breathing with apnea.  

 

Simply amazing.  I have added decades to my life.
