Cholesterol Code???

If you are on word press and the application is one big ass pain, don’t feel alone… I can’t get anything to copy and paste into the blog… So, I am definitely not impressed with this site and I paid for 3 years!!!! I give up, this is so screwed up…

If you google the above title, you will come across a video by a Engineer… I watched this last night and I will be honest… For over a month, I have tried to stay up past 9PM and last night, you couldn’t tear me away from the TV, I found this video that insightful, but not in the way you would think…

When Homer and I got married 32 years ago, eating a nice big T-bone steak, with a baked potato that would fill the plate and all the trimming’s wasn’t new… In fact, we went out several nights a week, drinking our butts off and by the time 2001 rolled around…

I was over the party scene and told Homer that, and after 25 years of alcoholism, he quit and I was right behind him…

By 2010… We were eating a much healthier diet, but we still smoked pot once in a while… and I like the once in a while Margarita… That’s been a couple years now too…

All during this time, my weight was up and down… My average weight for my height usually is right around 130, making for a perfect size 8… Right now I am at 140… but not by choice…

When Homer had his triple bypass in 2015, I made more changes to our diet and within a year, we were living on the big island and I was all in for Tempura meals, anything fired, deep fried in olive oil, I thought, it’s healthy??? (It wasn’t)…

Fast forward 10 years later and a CT scan in 2015, showed no issues with my pancreas…

A CT scan a few weeks ago, was a wake up call… I had cysts on my pancreas… So, what happened…

Well if you watch the above show about the cholesterol code, you’ll find those who work out, stay on a keto diet, have crazy high LDL… and that’s what I have had… Since the first test done back in the 80’s…

Off and on over the years, I was on drugs to lower that LDL and a drug to lower my triglycerides… Neither drug is good for the human body….

A Endo doctor in El Paso told me I produce the kind of cholesterol that will cause plaque build up in the arteries…???

Wanna know how many I have???

I have one, in my aorta and it’s been there since the Air Force took a X-ray and the blockage, though mild, showed up and it wasn’t from my triglycerides, it was from blunt force trauma during the Big Spring, Texas near death event… (See early blog)…

Now 1978 was what, 50 years ago, come 2 years??? AND????

I still only have deposits in that one vessel that has been there, since my father beat me to death in Big Springs, Texas, when I was 13 years old…

Because I have known of that X-ray for decades, when ever anyone mentions it, I look them in the eye and say, domestic violence and you aren’t finding any other deposits are you???

So why the write???

Because I can’t go on a KETO diet, even though, it probably is the best one for me… My body has always, since the beating at 5 years old that injured my pancreas… My body, has always been this way with processing fat… and sugar…

My experiment the last few weeks on my diet is showing me, I am on the right track for this and the chances of me getting off a statin, is likely not going to happen, until we figure out why, I have trouble processing fat and sugar…

What my experiment has shown me???

Sugar will trigger my restless leg syndrome and that is a issue I have had since the beating at 5 years old…

Sugar will mess with my sleep and it will increase my pain…

As for fat??? I find that will cause me to be up in the middle of the night and my throne and I get real friendly and that can be IBS-D most of the time, but other times, its the spectrum of IBS-C/D/U… Something I have lived with since the beating at 5 years old… (See tv interview)…

I see the doc next week and he will have to convince me, staying on a Statin is safe for me… I don’t think it is…

My LDL is normal at 200+ and it usually is less than 300 and If you watch the above video, you will be surprised at the study and it’s outcome, it got me to thinking…

Statins are known to cause neurological issues and with all my brain traumas, that’s the last thing I need, to cause a imbalance in my brain, because pharmaceuticals pushed a cholesterol drug that the majority of us, don’t need… and I tend to agree with this video on many points…

So the changes that I have noticed the last few weeks… My sleep, though not continious, is better… The bladder is actually working at night and not just bugging me…

As for the digestive part… That is what I am waiting for… An appointment with a gastroenterologist… It’s time I get the professional help, because chemistry isn’t my strong suit…

I haven’t been trying to lose weight, I never do try… My weight has gone up to 185 twice that I can remember in 72 years of life… Most of the time, I stayed around the 140’s range, within 10 pounds, unless I went on a sugar binge and we don’t do that anymore either…

I know our diet is good, because Homer’s blood work has been stellar for decades… Which is why I know, mine is related to the pancreas and the injury that happened when Freda beat me at 5 years old…

Everyone always thought Don Bagwell was the brutal one, when reality… Freda pulled the strings, just like Trump does… and blamed someone else… Yea, domestic violence and christians are one in the same…

That’s all I got… I was fascinated by this video, it is over a hour long, but I found it very informative and insightful and it was nice to know, other people out there, have the same weird metabolisms like me…

I remember…
