hi james,

i'll look for your old posts too.

good to hear that you didn't have any side effects from the Tricor.
i've been reading scary stuff about the fibrates, so its good to know that not everyone has these side effects.

dairy? i don't eat much dairy because it irritates my gastritis (i eat Total in the AM for my calcium and take a vitamin D pill for my vit D). but i did eat a few slices of fresh mozzarella (with tomatoes, basil, EVOO, and balsamic) and had a small bowl of ice cream (which i like never have) with my blueberry crisp on Saturday...but one day?

i don't eat much red meat, never eat the skin on the chicken, 1 oz of lowfat cheese a day, most of my fat comes from EVOO, but maybe (for me and my genetic makeup), its still too much fat total and too much animal fat....

thanks,

sue
