Probably new routines await

Today I received my test results regarding my blood lipids. Just as my dermatologist suspected, my cholesterol is elevated. My doctor has sent a referral to a cardiovascular specialist as my grandfather was medicated for high cholesterol and my father is medicated.

I really don't want to have to take medication for high cholesterol, but if the doctor says it's necessary after the examination is completed, I just have to bite the bullet. Intellectually I know it's wrong but I can't shake the feeling of shame, my veins are clogged with fat.
