A number of years ago, my cholesterol was 201.  But, the Alchemists wanted a number 200 or below.  So, they put me on medications.

After trying a half dozen different drugs over several years, they finally found one that reduced my cholesterol with out causing muscle pain. And, everyone was happy.

But then one day, I went to renew my prescription and was told that my insurance no longer covered that drug.  When I went to my doctor to find out what had happened, I was told that my cholesterol numbers were no longer important as long was I was taking a cholesterol mediation.

So, my cholesterol numbers are not important as long as I keep sending money to the drug companies.  I wonder if I can stop taking the drugs and just send my money to the drug companies?
