I had 90% blockage in the main artery, what they call the \u2018widowmaker.&#8217; I had a stent put in.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The conversation started because Maron was discussing how he&#8217;d started a vegan diet to see if his health improved or if he felt better. He said he had been taking a medication to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/lifestyle\/5-simple-healthy-diet-swaps-manage-cholesterol-levels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lower his cholesterol<\/a> but stopped taking it to try the vegan diet on its own.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Be careful with that,&#8221; Romano told him.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/ray-romano-had-no-desire-to-star-in-a-sitcom-again-after-everybody-loves-raymond\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>RAY ROMANO HAD NO DESIRE TO STAR IN A SITCOM AGAIN AFTER \u2018EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I had high cholesterol, you know, 20 years ago, and my guy always told me, \u2018Why don\u2019t we go on the statin?'&#8221; Romano said, referring to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/statins-benefits-understated-and-harms-exaggerated-scientists-warn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">class of medications<\/a> used to treat the condition.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Every time, I said, \u2018Let me do it myself, let me do it myself,\u2019&#8221; he recalled. &#8220;I would go home, and I would eat right, not vegan, but I would eat a little healthier and get it down a couple ticks. \u2026<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I go back, and it was 280. Now it&#8217;s 220. I go, \u2018Ah!\u2019 And he&#8217;d go, \u2018OK, now you gotta get it down more,&#8217; and I&#8217;d go home and think I was hot s&#8212;. I got it down already, so I&#8217;d start cheating, cheating. And that was the start of the cycle.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Romano said his doctor would tell him that even though he did have high cholesterol, it didn&#8217;t necessarily mean that he was &#8220;in danger,&#8221; especially because everything else &#8220;checked out&#8221; and he was otherwise healthy.<\/p>\n<p>That went on for &#8220;15, 16 years,&#8221; and then he had to have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/stents-bypass-surgery-offer-only-limited-benefits-for-millions-with-heart-disease-study-finds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the stent placed<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Joking with Maron, Romano pulled out his phone and showed him &#8220;the alarm to take my pills,&#8221; saying, &#8220;That&#8217;s where I&#8217;m at right now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters?cmpid=fnfirstnl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>On a more serious note, the &#8220;Everybody Loves Raymond&#8221; star said, &#8220;If I could go back 20 years ago, I would have gotten on the meds, you know?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>During the podcast, Romano also revealed that, in addition to having issues with his heart health, he&#8217;s also at risk for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/type-2-diabetes-study-predicts-startling-rise-condition-america-young-people\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">developing diabetes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Here&#8217;s the kicker,&#8221; he said. &#8220;So, I&#8217;m on the meds, and it&#8217;s got me all down, you know.
