New SHTG Info!!! Good News!!!
Obkb, so he goes to the follow-up appointment after our disaster of a performance on taking care of his SHTG this past go around. However, we found out something new that no one had bothered to tell us in the past 12 months of a previous physician and so-called lifestyle coach. It appears Vitamin D deficiency (no one before this new doc had tested his vitamin levels, and most physicians don't) is linked to high triglycerides … as in it could cause them.
Doc saw his Vitamin D deficiency, and has him on a prescription level Vitamin D pill he takes once a week for eight weeks, then he takes a lower dose, then he needs to go out to GNC or somewhere and get his own high dose Vitamin D. When we mentioned this to his mom who also has SHTG, she also mentioned she has Vitamin D deficiency, so he gets both of them hereditarily). Thus, I went hunting on Ye Olde Google, and there are oodles of info stating the two are linked.
Thus, we're going to get back on the healthy eats wagon, get him on the Vitamin D (which is also supposed to help with any cock moodiness which is also linked to SHTG, and Vitamin D is another supplement which is supposed to improve testosterone, libido, ED type issues -- not like he needs help there, trust) and see how low his numbers go in three months. He's also been told the 250mg Niacin doses are too low. Once he gets up the nerve to go 500mg (no time release Niacin, stuff's a placebo at best), I'm sure those numbers will drop too. The really good news is he measured in as having a fatty liver, and that's decreased so we're happy there, too.
So … needless to say, I finally found a doc I trust, even if I'm not the one going to him. This guy's on the boat with us that SHTG doesn't cause heart disease, it causes the pancreatitis that shuts all the other organs down … so if we stay under 1000, he won't bitch at us. Obkb.
