Ak thanks for posting. I am at the 210 lvl and my pcp was concerned. He wants to see if i can get it down on my own before any meds are given. I believe a lot of docs are out there will write scripts for the anchor pop. Why wait till 500 or above when they can start treating long before that lvl

Go for it Akanz....I've been on it for the last month at 4 grams and for the prior 45 days at 2 grams. I have serious spinal problems in addition to cardiac issues. There most definitely is an anti-inflammatory effect, maybe not miraculous but it is real and significant. I have blood lipids from period just prior to boosting dose to 4 grams, excited about lab results after 90 days at 4 grams! Do it brother!

Akanz - There seems to be quite a difference of opinion. I'm glad you're making headway as I think Vascepa offers some real value for folks like you. I pay out of pocket for mine and don't mind at all. If it turns out not to do anything but lower my numbers at least I didn't piss the money away on women and whiskey ;-)

Mild or moderate high trigs is 150-199mg/dL,
ANCHOR is High trigs, 200-499 mg/dL
MARINE is Very High, over 500 mg/dL

Could it all be semantics and misunderstanding the terms?
