[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2211146, member: 365308"] Please ask for your lipids in more detail e.g. what are your triglycerides and HDL. High LDL can contain lots of small low density lipo proteins which are linked to arterial disease. This could be for genetic reasons or because you eat a typical Western diet. I found this YouTube clip explaining it all quite useful and you should discuss with the GP when you are amed with some further knowledge: [MEDIA=youtube]2p-mkbNutvQ[/MEDIA] Hope that helps you make an informed choice about your risk and whether it is worth taking medication.
