Onething I’m so glad you’re managing to email with your doctor, that must be a relief. I hope things settle for you soon.

Phoebe that’s great that your new doc seems nice too!

Plenny I’ve heard that hibiscus tea is very good for you but I’ve never tried it.

I’m trying to get my cholesterol down without meds. I’m too scared to go back to the doctor for blood tests in case it hasn’t come down. My sober journey has been so up and down , and my diet has been crap, so chances are it hasn’t improved in the slightest… On a positive note though, I haven’t had a drink for 31 days, so tomorrow (17th) is the start of my second month without alcohol! And I’ve been taking fish oil capsules and eating oats for breakfast, both which are supposed to help lower cholesterol. Unfortunately I can’t seem to stop eating cheese, which is apparently not so good. I’m having skim milk in my coffee and tea which is good.
If anyone has any natural/dietary cholesterol lowering tips, please let me know
