As an update to my last post, I had new bloodwork done last week. The next morning (at a really early hour), Dr. S. called.
"Your cholesterol is awesome!" He starts off.
"Sweet!" I reply. "What is it."
"Well, your LDL is 80, which is even lower than we expected. Clearly a few weeks on Lipitor had a significant impact."
I was absolutely beaming. Then, I tell him that I want to stop taking the Lipitor and change my hypertension meds in preparation for pregnancy. Rather than the admonishment I expected, he was fully on board. I LOVE Dr. S!
So, after a fairly painless switch to Labetalol, which I can take during pregnancy, my husband and I are going to start trying to conceive next month! FINALLY!
