Before I found out that I had high cholesterol, I was a perfectly happy woman with almost no worries and I was a woman who thought that didn’t have any kind of problems, especially health problems. After I found out that I had high cholesterol, I was much less happy, but fortunately, I started taking Lipitor, the medication which took care of everything.
I am a housewife and this is a job that I adore. I know that some people don’t call this a job, but I don’t care. It is a job, especially if you have more than two kids and a really big house that you have to clean. Since my husband earned enough, I didn’t have to work and I didn’t want to work. I thought that my kids needed me more at home and I’m glad that I made that decision.
However, since the kids went to college, I have been lonely most of the time. Unfortunately, my husband still works a lot and my friends don’t really have as much time as I do. All of this means that I have a lot of free time. Since I don’t really like watching TV that much and since reading is not my thing either, I spend a lot of time online reading about celebrities and all sorts of news and online women magazines.
One day, I read about how older women are advised to have annual health checkups so that they can be sure that there is nothing seriously wrong. This was news to me. I thought that whenever there was something wrong with you, there would be some kind of symptoms that you would experience. It turns out that in some cases, there were no symptoms. Since I didn’t visit a doctor for quite a while, I decided to do it.
And after my appointment, I couldn’t believe what the doctor told me. He said that I had high cholesterol and that although this was nothing serious at the time, it could cause some serious problems if not taken care of. His advice was a diet and workouts that would probably take care of everything. However, this healthy treatment solved nothing and I had to start using Lipitor.
It turned out that this medication was the right choice and with the help of it, I managed to control the levels of my cholesterol. With Lipitor, I was in no kind of danger and I was extremely glad because as soon as I found out that I had high cholesterol, I read more about it and I realized just how potentially dangerous it is to ignore this problem.
Once again, I am a happy housewife that has no major health problems. I know that my life may seem a bit boring, but I prefer it that way. I’m also happy because I know that once my kids have their kids (which will be soon, I hope), I will be healthy and strong enough to help out as much as I can.
