:hi: does anyone know about cholestrol i have been told my doctor today i have high cholestrol but she wants to get my thyroid sorted out first

well jean thyroid and cholestrol are connect IF they get your thyroid sorted then you can work on the cholestrol after , having a thyroid problem is more dangerous than your cholestrol , have you got a over or under active thyroid and what are they doing about it ?

oh jean they deffenlty need to sort the thyroid out first can lead to big problem if left untreated, just a though but health shops sell a hebal med called alfa alfa which bring your cholestrol down if your worried about that
good luck with it
