Lipoprotein (a) is the latest cholesterol-related test that is being promoted as a genetically-determined risk factor for coronary artery disease that can only be treated with statins. The same strategy was originally attempted with total cholesterol, until the genetics were found to only be 20% (approx) determinate, the balance by lifestyle factors.
The evaluation and treatment of heart-disease risk is multi-dimensional and not simply solved by the addition or deletion of a single drug, supplement or food.

Delayed Withdrawal Reaction (DWR) is a condition where the withdrawal of a medication or other agent (ie cigarettes) causes withdrawal symptoms months after the agent is reduced or stopped.
This can happen with many medications that are not considered addictive or dependency-causing. Examples include: SSRI’s, tramadol, some blood pressure medications, some antacids, and others.
Medications known to be addictive, such as benzodiazepams, sleep medications, stimulants, pain medications and others can also cause a DWR.
Peter Breggin has been writing this phenomenon for over 20 years, and yet is still unknown by most physicians including psychiatrists. Reducing medications by 25-50% per step over a few weeks can cause a DWR. Unless there is an urgent need to reduce a medication, it’s best to withdraw by no more than 5-10% per step.

Cervical Dysplasia is a pre-cancerous condition that is usually detected by a PAP Test. When a PAP test comes back abnormal, the typical process is to repeat it a few months later, since it can be caused by certain vaginal infections or other conditions.
The usual treatment for persistent cervical dysplasia is a Cone Biopsy or more extensive LEEP Procedure.
Holistic options exist for women who are motivated to avoid such procedures.
