Message: [QUOTE="KnightBridgeAZ, post: 4033167, member: 591"] Yeah, my bad cholesterol has been low (not that low) for as long as they have checked it. When it was first checked in my 30's it was "championship athlete" good for a chubby couch couch potato; it is still good, just not that good. My endocrinologist (not currently seeing, thank goodness) said it can largely be heredity. I have - so far - been spared the coronary issues - my grandmothers and only uncle had them, but the only ones in the family with heart trouble. But it killed them in the end. Now high blood pressure - don't know a single family member without - I've taken the same medicine successfully for over 30 years, likewise thank goodness. But I will keep walking. It has beaten back the diabetes (with a medicine), at worst kept me from gaining weight (maybe lost a bit with a diet adjustment) and just plain makes me feel better. [/QUOTE]
