I interesting, thanks RCS.
I've always had a triglyceride, and HDL problem, which has led to coronary artery disease. I have my triglycerides more or less, under control, at 148, but my HDL is 34, up from 27 but still low. My Cardiologist is not concerned, because my LDL is down to 34, but still I'd like to get HDL up. I started moderate weightlifting a couple of weeks ago, so this is good to know

Pratoman,

Years ago I bought the book, "The Eight Week Cholesterol Cure", by Robert Kowalski :

www.amazon.com/The-8-Week-Cholesterol-Cure-Deprivation/dp/0060914718

It favors a diet similar to a heart healthy/PCa healthy diet. One item, Oat Bran, is something I have stayed with over the years. I eat two of his bran muffins a day.

I learned a lot by reading the book. One item is that clogged arteries can be cleaned out through diet. Good luck with cleaning yours out!

A newer edition:
www.amazon.com/The-New-8-Week-Cholesterol-Cure/dp/0060564601/ref=pd_sim_14_3?ie=UTF8&dpid=51Sf4UX0MEL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR100%2C160_&refRid=0GGXAY2S7GW12WZ1NQ2S

PSA at 3 & 6 months post surgery were reported as <.05

PSA 9 months post surgery from a different lab is now .03

I think I would of rather had the <.05 even though it's essentially the same result.

I could have been .03 all along or it could be rising. I'm already anxious for the 12 month result.
