*UPDATE* I cut my Atenenol in half yesterday. BP was better. I did not take it at all today and it's late. I just measured my BP at 121/80. So as far as I can tell, strict adherence to PT and the other supplements has corrected my blood pressure. Thanks for all your work Owen.

What kelp supplement do you use? Since our oceans are so toxic I think its hard to find ocean based kelp supps that are pure or have significant amounts of iodine. IHMO iodine is much like vit C, the fda/rda is significantly lower than what we really need.

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)
2.48 mIUn/mL
(range) 0.34-4.82 mIUn/mL

Are you sure the range on this TSH test is mIUn/mL and Not mIU/L???
I checked all my books on a conversion and asked the Lab Rats about it???
No one has heard of it, Nor can I find a conversion for it!!
Because the standard Lab Ranges is in mIU/L!
Could you please verify this????

@exitium it's a swansons brand of kelp.. Not totally sure of the source but they've always done good for me..

@John, I copied and pasted this directly from my patient portal profile. I don't know what all the letters, ect mean.. Wish I could be of more help.

*UPDATE*

I just came from getting my Calcium CT Scan. I'll get results Tuesday. I went to a Walgreens Clinic and got a cholesterol test (not VAP).. Results are not what I'd like but certainly trending in the right direction except for HDL.(Currently over 2 months on PT)

LDL - 176
HDL - 34
Trigs - 192
TC - 248

That is the lowest TC, LDL and Trigs I've ever been tested at. I wonder what happened to the HDL or if it even matters.

Thoughts or comments would be helpful.

Thanks

Trying to be helpful....

50% of people who die from heart attacks have no elevated cholesterol - what is needed is VLDL and LDLs and HDLs - in other words lipid fractionation. In other words though what you have looks good...it may not be....
