A member asked:
My triglycerides is a 193 which is borderline high, i also inject a meth, how close am i really to having a heart disease, i know i need to quit ?

Meth is far more: dangerous than triglycerides of 193. You may take fish oil capsule, 2 gm twice a day for triglycerides. You say you know you need to quit, please do while you are ahead!

Go to rehab NOW.: You are at risk of more than just a cardiac problem. You could be poisoned, you could overdose, inject a foreign material, get bacteria in your blood that then causes you to become critically ill, you could develop infection inside your heart and on the valves, causing you to need heart surgery, you could have a stroke or just drop dead. Meth is the dirtiest drug there is. Check in at an ER today
