Thanks for sharing!

It seems well established that there is a link between MDS and low cholesterol.

What is not established is how often low cholesterol could be the cause of MDS, if at all.

What is also not established is the results of increasing low cholesterol as an aid for procrit, etc.

I can say that I feel much less lethargic with my increased cholesterol. Psychological or Physiological? Either way, I feel less lethargic.

I will keep everyone posted and GREATLY appreciate you and others continuing to share their stories!!

She is a vegetarian, the only food sources for her are butterfat or similar. Any supplements you know of?
Great that your Hb has increased, keep us posted on the progress and good luck!!
