When I was really sick with WG my cholesterol went right up to 7.5. I decided not to go on medication and it's now down to 3.5.All I have done is to to take 3 teaspoons of psyllium husk about every second day and 2 fish oil tablets. I really can't attribute it going down so low to anything else as I've always sat on about 5.5. I really haven't changed my eating patterns. Butter not marg but plenty of fish and vegies. Carol

High stress (including acute illness) is known to cause elevated cholesterol. You're doing well with that regime, Carol. Good combo!
