Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Dear Ones, Its been awhile since I posted but I have a question I need help with. My son is 28yrs old. He has been acting tired and depressed for some time now. I finally got him to go to MD for some help. They did blood tests the results were that his ldl was 107 but his hdl was 31 and he has high blood pressure. They sarted him on a prescription called niaspan back in May/June. I am worried cause he acts so tired and depressed. I don't want to see him on drugs that can be addictive, but I want the guy that likes to live and laugh and tease back. I went looking at old messages too see if anyone else had this question and Dr Wm drews name came up but couldn't find more info please help!! Thanks in advance, Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Hi, Some words of encouragement for your son. I hace a genetic condition which " screws up " my lipids. I have been on medication since my mid 30's (now 73). In particular, my HDL's have always been very low & reducing my cholesterol, also reduces my HDL. I have found that the only way to get my HDL in the proper range is to combine regular exercise with drugs & diet. The exercise combined with low levels of medication works much better than increasing the medication dosage. I find that the regular exercise also helps with depression. Nothing really new here, just a reaffirmation of the benefits of using all the tools available for managing health problems.
