I had actually forgotten aboout them anc,, as they do the job and have lowered my cholesterol. when i was at docs last month asking for a ” repeat script”. she reminded me that they are probably more important than the other pills i take. so now i take them (erm) .. get good results when i have my M.O.T of body, apart from the thyroid, but im on pills for life too and it keeps changing ! one min im taking too much at 275 mg. then not enough. at 250 mg.
we will get there in the end. didnt have all these pills a couple o decades ago.
Just took a quick check on mine – they are 200mg. I think I rattle around btw – take that one and one for something else at night, vit c, cod liver oil and hay-fever pills in the morning! Do ya think we are twins?! :lol:

‘cor that’s high – I gotta go for an MOT in a couple of months, I wonder if mine will be ‘upped’ – does it depend on age, or, how long you have been taking them? I have been taking mine for around 10 yrs. :?
simvastins for about 10 months,, throxene for 14 years. only discovered i needed them after a head on collision with the Germans, whilst in a Spanish clinic LOL. I used to wonder why i got tired a lot. the levels go up and down like a bloody yo yo,and too much is as bad as too ittle,so i have to get tested every 3 months.Give full bloods every 6 months,could not bear that every 3 as i have to go to bed after giviing bloods as i feel faint :) I discovered quit recently ish that every female on my mothers side of the family and their female children ALL have low thryoid.So i guess its genetic.
awwwww hugs! My high cholesterol is genetic (HDL level is high), nothing to do with diet – got diagnosed with it when I went to give blood ffs! Anyway, I am glad it was detected – strange really, ‘cos I have had two kids, and it wasn’t ‘found’ then, so I reckon it has to be an age, diet, and/or a genetic thing! Anyway, my level is bang on where it should be, thanks to a little pill once a day, so I am happy with that! :)
