Default Boating and Colonoscopies

Just got my cholesterol test results back.
Total 188
good 42 bad 125 or is that bad 42 good 125. Not bad for a guy fast closing
in on retirement.
The NP said it was borderline good and the Dr. wants to up my pravachol
dosage.
I then told her I haven't been taking pravachol since 2004. I got scared
after the Bayer fiasco.
I then told her that's not too bad considering I have scrambled eggs and
sausage 4 days a week for breakfast rotated with oatmeal & raisins the other
3 days.

me for one of those [colonoscopy]. I still haven't shown up for it."

This ng seems to have a lot of over 40 members.
If you want a few more years of boating, and someone has told you to get a
colonoscopy, swallow your pride, set your concerns for dignity aside, and
het 'er done!
Early detection is what makes colon cancer curable!
Just remember to bring wine and flowers (chocolates not necessary) to the
appointment.

That's my last pubic service message. There won't be any others.
