High Cholesterol because of Alcohol

2021-06-19 11:15:30
I tested my lipid profile which came along with a Diabetic test package. My bad cholesterol values are pretty high and good is low [Cholesterol=301; Triglycerides=272; LDL=211; VLDL=54; Non-HDL=265 and HDL=36] I consulted a Cardiologist who has prescribed Rozavel F (0-0-1), redo the test and let him know. Nobody in the family has this and I believe it is because of my alcoholism which I quit last December. My question is once my LDL is brought down, will it be permanently cured or I would need to take medicine the rest of my life? I was COVID positive on May-8th and also take anxiolytics for anxiety and depression.
