    He is in the top 20% for heart risk. Already been diagnosed with heart disease.

    His reason for visiting Walter Reed unannounced for his annual checkup (due in February) “in phases” doesn’t pass the smell test.

    It's supposed to be some sort of anti-bullying program. Can you imagine?

    those generalized cholesterol, HDL & LDL figures. The Tri's matter. That's about it. It's not about
    the LDL number you see in the results. I started requesting my doctor give me an NMR test for my
    cholesterol (LipoProteins). This one tells you the CONDITION of the LDL particles.
    Are small & sense? Not too good. Are they large & fluffy? Excellent. You could have sky high LDL
    and as long as the particles are in good shape, you're in great health and your LipoPtroteins
    are getting delivered to your brain and other areas of your body that REQUIRES daily deliveries
    of good quality LDL.

    I'll post more on this in a bit.
    Where did you dredge all this bullshit up from? I'm sure you'll have some credible sources for this incredible steaming pile. lol

    You have to admit...it took him two years to come up with a govt. that will protect him from his crimes. He's got the courts, State Dept., Justice Dept, and the Senate.

    Wouldn't it be ironic if he had a heart attack now?
    More like lovely and long overdue karma. But not a lethal one. Just the kind that keeps him from doing POTUS duties.

    He can have the big one in prison... hopefully years later.

    No, it doesn't. There are 24/7/365 docs ready in the WH just in case, plus a health clinic that can do routine labs -- as rumor says he had at the hospital.

    But he can still think about how much he's ridiculed and despised, and how much he lost.

    True. You're lucky if they'll pay once.
