I have started PT 1.5 years ago. I have Type 1 Diabetes.
Blood pressure is around 128/85.
I am a little bit overweight (6 Kg) after my health went downhill at the end last year.
Had severe sleeping problems for years, diagnosed with sleep apnea in the last few months. Got a CPAP. It's going better now.
I have allergic reactions to the bad air here. Woodsmoke, sigarettes, parfum etc. Have an appointment with my lung doctor in a week.
Had also much mucus in my throat and even some fever in the last weeks. Difficult to breathe sometimes. Had covid-19 tested and was negative.
My cholesterol has been high since diagnosed with diabetes 14 years ago. Was not tested before that.
High cholesterol is running in the family including my father. He had a hearth attack 9 years ago.
I could not stand the statins. Have had ezetimibe for years but cholesterol is still high.
Have been tested for FH but tested negative. Doctor still wants me to have PCKS9 injections, but I don't want them.
He does not want to find the cause.
I hoped that my cholesterol would have improved with PT by now, so that I can refuse the PCKS9 injections more easily.
Got a lipoprint last year and had it checked again last week.
My values were much worse.
Name Last year Now
oxLDL 55.0 137,8 ng/ml
Lpa 123,20 170,4 nmol/l
hsCRP <1 3,49 mg/l
Total Cholesterol 360 282 mg/dl
Triglyceride 76 114 mg/dl

LDL3 11 43 mg/dl
LDL4 3 26 mg/dl
LDL5 0 9 mg/dl
LDL6 0 1 mg/dl

LDL3 to 7 seem to be the bad ones.
It seems I have a low-grade infection somewhere, maybe related to my lung problems.

Is PT working and is this a temporary increase? Or should I worry, especially the high hsCRP value?
With this amount of Vit C I already have a watery stool. Maybe want to take in addition liposomal vit C.
What should I have tested?
Fibrogen and Homocysteine?
What other steps could I take, any recommendations?
