What is it ?

[silka]

Doc just done a fasting blood test.
Have had a numb big toe for ages and its getting worse.
Results ok apart from high colestoral

[Sqad]

What do you mean"what is it?"

You have just told us.....it's for your cholesterol.

[Bbbananas]

I think sqad, he means 'what is cholesterol?'
:-)

[silka]

Put it another way is that a symptom of high colestoral ?

[Sqad]

salla...how do I know?....tell him to google it.

[silka]

Nasty old man

[eash]

Or is he asking why his toes are numb?

[Sqad]

Could be a symptom of many things including hypercholesterolaemia.........google it.

[Bbbananas]

nasty old man

Oh dear, it's that time of day, but I am psml at that.
sorry sqad... but you were a bit of a James Blunt !!!!

[silka]

God help his so called former patients if he was a doctor.

[Bbbananas]

Personally I would exit his consulting room laughing... we used to have a Locum GP here with just the same attitude. Not all the patients appreciated him, but I thought he was hilarious.

depends what the problem is though I supose?!

Sqad - every day I find myself having to tell you I love you :-)

[Sqad]

salla.......c'mon....you have to be a bl00dy mind reader to work out what he wants to know..........just read the question again.ffs.

Anyway......how does he/she know I am a man?

[silka]

I have seen enough of your nasty posts to other people

[Sqad]

silka....LOL.

C'mon ...what do you want to know?

[Bbbananas]

How do you know he/she's a man?!

Be nice. :-)

[silka]

Arrogant old tw@t

[Bbbananas]

Well, he's not going to help you now is he?

Then again, knowing Sqad.....

[bigmamma]

Hee , another funny thread !

[swanko]

have you stubbed your toe?

[Sqad]

silka...very true.

Now, a numb big toe could be due to:

Diabetes.
Peripheral vascular disease....not enough blood getting to your extremities (arms and legs)
Peripheral neuritis......a nervous disorder.

From you full and totally adequate description, I would gather that diabetes has been ruled out.

The high cholesterol would suggest that you may have peripheral vascular disease and that you may need to diet or go on cholesterol lowering drugs.

That will be �100......you tw@t.

I have just answered and it has been deleted......LOL
