I had an impromptu cholesterol non-fasting test on Tuesday. They called with the results and said it was slightly high and that I should exercise and watch what I eat. Being I have PMS, and such advice is ludicrous, I wanted to freak out. I told them I am dairy free and meat free and so since I don't eat cholesterol how could I have it? How accurate are the non-fasting tests does anyone know? I think I might call my doc and ask about it. I mean how could I exercise more or eat any better?! I mentioned it might be family history based and they said maybe.
-------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
