Heather Echola I spent a whole year eating oatmeal five days a week and had really good numbers. Since I have an exercise bike now, I can also ride it.

Heather Echola I have bought books about this. Sometimes the advice is contradictory.

Heather Echola The thing is my numbers are really pretty good. Yes, they automatically prescribe statins to almost everyone. My friend Beth who worked in a heart hospital refuses to take one. Repatha is not a statin, but it was not good for me either. I feel like my health...

I guess I did not post about my debit card not working yesterday. Something had damaged the chip. I had to go get it replaced and was at the bank before it opened this morning. While I waited for it to open I shopped at Walmart...

Heather Echola My son in law has worked in a couple of dealerships as a service writer or parts orderer or something. He said the ones newer than 2018 had fewer troubles. I do believe any make or model can be a lemon.
