cianci, no statins...Zetia, Yes to aspirin. Also started a anticoagulant, despite bleeding issues.

Diet is nothing special. Have reduced red meat. The most important factor is intermittent fasting. It's a wonderful practice with MANY paybacks like weigh loss, glucose control and much diminished joint pain.

BP has always been high. Pretty good control now. Cholesterol unremarkable although triglycerides always high all my life.

Yes, intermittent fasting is the only way I seem to lose weight.
Why do you need asperin and an anticoagulant? Similar to a blood thinner?
What is the test to determine if anticoagulant needed?
Were you told to limit your workouts?
