Yep. Maybe should have gone on a lower-your-cholesterol diet before the blood work - or at least cut out the bacon and egg sandwiches - but there it is. My doc just prescribed Atorvastatin. I'd like the chance to bring my numbers down through diet (not bad, except for the aforementioned (but only occasional!) bacon and egg sandwiches (hey they were free range eggs)) and exercise (already riding plenty) but looks like might be hereditary. The old man had heart issues, but he was 2 packs a day for 40 years before he quit, which must have been brutal on both ends. So who knows.
