Micro > So, I guess there is CEMENT type cholesterol and some good cholesterol?

>>>
LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, sometimes called "bad" cholesterol, makes up most of your body's cholesterol. High levels of LDL cholesterol raise your risk for heart disease and stroke. HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, sometimes called "good" cholesterol, absorbs cholesterol in the blood and carries it back to the liver.
>>>

What is the difference between HDL and LDL cholesterol?

http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/321484

Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, or “bad” cholesterol, collects in the walls of the blood vessels, causing them to narrow. High-density lipoprotein (HDL), or “good” cholesterol, moves LDL cholesterol out of the bloodstream.

I resemble those remarks and discussion...

$ main arteries to the ventrical 100 percent blocked so bad they could not use the cutter on the camera they run up thru yer artery to open up a hole and passage to put a stent in.. Apparently my plaque must have been more like some type of hardened steel...
Doc could not believe I did not have some kind of major heart attack that would have been fatal with the lack of blood flow getting thru.

Actually, he was enraged about WHO said it was okay to have the hip replacement back in January. I should not have survived that surgery and died on the table.

I did not give up who did the pre-op physical because I knew there was going to be some repurcussions and I like my primary care physician.

So, I guess there is CEMENT type cholesterol and some good cholesterol?

How come I got the cement type? lol!!!!!!

Oh well....
