There aren't a whole lot of options that are accepting new patients in our small'ish town. And I want to stick with a local primary care doctor. Had one in Lex once & driving to and from when you're as sick as a dog gets old FAST!

I sure hope the meds help you out.

I just got my estrogen test results back & this is gonna be "interesting." Normal for post menopausal/post hysterectomy women is usually less than 10 pg/ml. Mine is 32.4 pg/ml.

So I guess low estrogen isn't part of my cholesterol problem (that still leaves Cortisol though) BUT high estrogen levels cause insomnia and insomnia can contribute to stress which contributs to cortisol which increases cholesterol...

I'm just shaking my head at this point & continuing to watch my intake & limit all things carb/sugar/fat!
