Well at my last visit to the doc's, they said my LDL was 17x. I was floored. She (20 sumpin' PA) said she wanted me to take Lipitor and adjust my diet, etc.. I said I didn't want to take the drugs and I'd do better with my diet and exercise, weight, etc.. Well, I went back today, only 3 weeks later, and my LDL was back to about where it usually is, 123. The PA first asked if I had been taking the Lipitor, I said no. She was dumbfounded. I suggested possibly the first test was askew since I'd never had a cholesterol prob in the past. She admitted it could be. She said I don't need the drugs now, but be good anyway.

Well, I'm a happier guy tonight as I bbq a nice primerib roast...purely for research purposes only, of course. This is my first primerib roast and my wife wants to serve it for xmas eve dinner and she bought a small one for me to "practice" on. Hey! maybe she doesn't think I can cook?
