Hi Charlie, i had my test results today, mine is 8.5, i am in the high risk, not because of my diet(always had low fat) but it's hereditry, i have high blood pressure as well, inherited from my dad Helen |

Doc says he's not too concerned as I'm not in risk group but it needs to be around 4!!! Does that mean no plum duff and doubly whipped gooey cream!!!!! |
