fear of doctor

[hdes]

I had my blood checked 2 monyths ago and my cholesterol is very high and I was told to go to the doctor but i have failed to make 3 appointments. I am terrified  to go I am an intelligent person and I know  the risks but I just turned 40 and I need some advice about how to deal with this issue any advice?

Is it doctors that concern you or the news they may give you? Remember, having knowledge is control over your condition, it's still there whether you go to the doctor or not. The fact that you posted here and made 3 appointments makes me believe you are thinking about the possible problem. Wouldn't your quality of life be better if you got this behind you? What's the worse he can do, perform another test and write a prescription?

You should go and get some peace.

You said you are intelligent. I do believe you. You have only one question to answer, as Jesus asked I will ask also. Why? The answer for that only you have. Go back in time in your head and remember. You might have bad experiences, clear those for yourself, and then heal yourself. For you to do that is important maybe more important than your cholesterol standing right now.Until you make it to the doctor eat cholesterol friendly as you can.  
Good luck.

Yes, I have some advice: go to the doctor. At this point you don't even seem to know what your Cholesterol broken down into its components actually is.
