Do you have high cholesterol due to meds?

My cholesterol is so much higher after being on olanzapine for 2 years. It was over 300! So I switched to latuda hoping that helps. My doctor thinks it could be my thyroid, so we’ll see what the tests say. Trying a plant based diet again as that helped in the past. Keto makes it worse.

or a ukulele. Mildly amusing fact: I have a shirt with a ukulele person kneeling down in front of a guitar person in a black cape from when I played guitar.

The guitar says “Uke, I am your father” and the Ukulele screams “Noooo!”
