I dunno, bro... just had my annual physical on the 11th. 118/72 blood pressure, 60 bpm heart rate, A1C was 5.2, cholesterol was 185, and everything else was good, too.

Bad point - LDL was 121 and should be under 100. HDL was 50 so that could be a little higher.

I shall continue NOT taking any medications.

Stay on that path as long as you can. Healthcare institutions want nothing more than to get their claws into each individual Profit Centers (a person).

Once they get you on the meds, then force you into med check appointments (where a blood draw and a print out of where those numbers fit, into ever tightening wellness zones), so they can get you talked into another med, and series of additional med check appointments.
