11th January 2007
I take 5 grams of fish oil per day...enough to yield a gram of DHA + EPA. I also take 650 mg. aspirin per day. For cholesterol I take 20 mg. Lipitor and 500mg. slow release niacin.
I stopped Plavix 6 weeks after my stent.
For BP I take 40 mg. Lasix and 50 mg. Cozaar to get modest control.
Dietary control is calorie counting and fairly tight control on saturated fats (could be a LOT TIGHTER!)
Plus my vitamins!
My stent (Cypher sirolimus eluting) had its second birthday last week.
I work out very hard but enjoy my Pizza too. I let the Lipitor worry about the cheese and the Lasix worry about the salt. :D:D
