There was a lot of interest last time this was aired but I was left
with
a few unanswered questions...

How significant is the fat in processed Pork slices as I find it a
very
convenient source of sandwich filling?

How linear is the response to dose levels? A recent test found 4.2
total
(2.4 LDL) for a dose of 20mg. Pre-statins, I had levels of 6.8 and
7.2
total. I would like to drop the dose to 10mg.

I asked how long it takes for the body to return to normal after
stopping medication and was told 2 weeks. I was also told to resume
treatment to double check any noted changes.

Surely this is something only your doctor or specialist nurse is
qualified to answer. Seeking advice on an Internet NG about this
seems
very unwise to say the least.

Yes. However, they may already have asked more pertinent questions
than
I did in the allotted 10mins. Some of them may have a better
scientific
understanding of the answers:-)

If you feel the basic ten minute appointment is too short you can ask
for a longer one. Any GP practice thas does not do that is not doing
their job adeqautely. Without a full medical history no doctor, let
alone amateur "experts" on a NG are in a position to give valid advice.
To emphasise the point it really is extremly foolish to rely on
unqualified advice in the way you are trying to do.

My god how I pity your doctor, you must be a real PITA.

He clearly feels otherwise. He stopped accepting any new
patients, because he was the only one doing childbirths
in the town and when the one I had used before that left
town he was happy to accept me as a new patient.

And anyway, why see the quack?

Because I need someone to write the prescriptions, ****wit.

I'd have thought you'd write them yourself, ****wit.
You clearly haven't got this sorted, wodney.
