Pain since prior to gallbladder surgery

Thank you. I have taken statins and had to come off of them because it caused my liver enzymes to increase. After the second try with statins my liver enzymes would not decrease and the doctor made me take hepatitis shots to protect my liver. It took almost 12 months for enzymes to come back to normal levels. If all I eat leafy greens, fruits, beans, then I have a diarrhea Doctors suggest a Mediterranean diet but it consists of all the above except for some fish or poultry. I’m trying to find a happy medium to where I can enjoy eating and having a life. It all just doesn’t seem worth it anymore.

I am on a low dose of generic Crestor -10mg-but my Rheumatologist monitors liver enzymes because the biologics I am on can impact them. So if they spike I will know .. thank goodness.
As someone who is older, insulin resistant, edging toward type II diabetes, and with a profound family history of cardiovascular disease, I am forced to eat to live -when I would much rather live to eat. 😁 it is certainly tiresome, and demands a lot of focus… so I understand your comment that it isn’t worth it. Hopefully you will meet a community here who can help you believe it is indeed worth it.
Sending good Juju your way.
