The consensus is that elevated LDL equates to elevated risk of atherosclerosis. It's really not up for much debate amongst most physicians.

2023-10-29 10:52:47

- reply

You can find studies that support whatever theory you want to believe. The vast majority of scientific evidence says LDL is one of the key components to atherosclerosis.

2023-10-29 02:58:18

- reply

Ok, so as someone who practices medicine, take my word for it: Worry more about your LDL, better yet, your apoB level, than your HDL. HDL numbers are meaningless as the actual functionality of the HDL particle is not measurable.

2023-10-29 02:49:42

- reply

I don't mean to be rude, but you have no idea what you are talking about.

2023-10-28 14:22:21

- reply

If there was not a cholesterol atheroma in the artery wall that ruptured then there would be no subsequent thrombus formation and therefore no myocardial infarction. You need a cholesterol plaque rupture to set off the clotting cascade that leads to a heart attack. That is not debatable.

2023-10-28 14:03:20

- reply

I would again suggest that autopsy results prove otherwise.

2023-10-28 13:16:34

- reply

I'm not suggesting that we eliminate cholesterol entirely. Obviously it's a necessary component of a great many things. What I am suggesting is that the circulating level of cholesterol needed to do those things is much lower than what most of us are walking around with. Take kids for example: most kids have LDLs in the 30s and they clearly do just fine. Lowering cholesterol lowers the risk of development of arterial disease. Period. Is high cholesterol the sole reason for heart disease, no. It is necessary but not sufficient. But it is an easily modifiable factor whereas inflammation is not in many cases.

2023-10-28 13:07:59

- reply

At least two factors. Circulating cholesterol being one of them. Secondly, some level of inflammation that allows the cholesterol to get into the arterial wall. If you eliminate cholesterol, even in the presence of inflammation you theoretically would not develop atherosclerosis.

2023-10-28 12:58:52

- reply

That is completely false. We know exactly the pathology of a heart attack. Have you ever looked at an autopsy of the coronary arteries of someone who died of a massive heart attack. The pathogenesis lies in the accumulation of cholesterol in the wall of the arteries.

The bottom line is you will never get your cholesterol levels down as low with lifestyle as you will with a statin and in this case lower is better.

People certainly can have those side effects. If you are trying to get your levels of cholesterol down there are excellent alternatives. PCSK9 inhibitors are the most potent. They are quite expensive often due to being on brand still.

2023-10-27 22:43:03

Well, you said "doctors are merely mindless agents of the insurance companies and hospital hire-ups, you are just following orders", no? So your statement is pretty broad and would include all "doctors". Therefore, I'm part of the conversation. Anyway, don't go to the fucking doctor then. I really don't give a shit.

2023-10-27 22:35:20

- reply

Bro, I don't work for insurance companies or a hospital. Direct primary care. I follow my own orders.

2023-10-27 22:23:02

You realize of course that doctors have absolutely nothing to do with what you are charged. You can thank your insurance company and the hospitals they collude with on that one.

2023-10-27 22:18:21

That you are confused about the difference between doctors and cops, yes. That is the problem.

2023-10-27 22:15:01

Yes. But I'm not sure what that has to do with doctors.

Not sure that reduction in cardiovascular events is a net negative...and development of insulin resistance and hyperglycemia is a possible side effect in a small amount of patients. Also easily monitored so can be adjusted if necessary.
