Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

That makes a little more sense then, though I remain skeptical that it's quicker to shimmy up a tree and hack coconuts down than leaf through the clinic's files for locals with compatible blood and look to see if any of them are around .

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

answer is high cholesterol.

low HDL, high LDL, and high overall. I have 2 months to improve or I go on meds. So exercise and less crap food is on the horizon.

I have no idea what you all are talking about except that I know it's damn hard to break a coconut.

Msbelle, that's totally manageable. My Dr. suggested fish oil tablets. (I really think my cholesterol is tied to my love of dairy.)

Christine's DH uses large amounts of fibre and niacin to keep his cholesterol low instead of the meds.

low HDL, high LDL, and high overall.

HDL is the good cholesterol, right? I ask because while my overall total is high, my ratio of bad to good is really, REALLY good because my good is so high.

Of course, I keep waiting for them to find out the good kind is really "good" instead.

Yep Sue, I think so too. I already have fish oil capsules, just need to start re-taking them. Will start on oatmeal every morning. Salad everyday, often with an avocado. Salmon or Halibut twice a week at least. And then exercise hopefully everyday.

Yes, HDL is the good.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That sounds like a good plan. Good luck, msbelle.

Cumberbatch and Tennant:

Ooh, just what I needed today.

So, hi folks, I'm home from the hospital. That was less fun than I'd planned on having this week. Plus my DH is sick too, and today was his first day back at work. Did I mention we got stuck in Atlanta's blizzard on Sunday night and had to rent a car and drive home on Monday, which took 9.5 hours (it should take about 4)? So, not our best week ever. Bleh.

GUH.

msbelle, best of luck with your cholesterol.
