In developed nations like the US, it’s estimated that about 40% of the adult population carries it, and for most people, it doesn't even cause symptoms. If things do get bad, your doctor will just put you on a course of antibiotics.
Thanks! I'm going to head to the doctor in a couple of days. 😢
Thanks
I realized later that they also found *Helicobacter pylori* during my tests.
Could that be linked to everything else—and just how much of a danger are we talking about here?...
Just got my lab results back in the mail from the clinic. Apparently, I have mixed hyperlipidemia?
Cholesterol 6.7
Triglycerides 2.27
HDL cholesterol 1.06
LDL cholesterol 4.61
What even is "mixed hyperlipidemia" exactly?
Does this mean I can kiss all fatty foods goodbye forever, or what...
I just found a "citation" tucked under my windshield wiper from the Highway Patrol at $167. Apparently, they think I was parked illegally. Honestly, how can they even prove I was the one behind the wheel if there’s no signature on this thing? Should I actually just pay up? And more importantly... what kind of headache am I looking at if I decide to ignore it?
